Several weeks ago, while slowly making our way through the children’s section of Ikea, I spotted this cardboard play market. Now it’s not like me to purchase play things on a whim (we sort of operate on a minimal toys basis in our house), but with all of the all of the possibilities and a $12.99 price tag ($14.99 in the US), I couldn’t pass it up.
For the last little while, it’s been Grae’s Fruit & Veggie Market, where she sells all sort of {felt} fruits and vegetables for ridiculously low prices (and she even throws in a free reusable bag with your purchase!)
One of Gracen’s very favourite pretend play games is ‘store’, so it goes without saying that this has been a total hit, plus I love the fact that it encourages all kinds of communication, manners, and role play.
Next up, our cardboard market is being put to use as a puppet theatre!

Thanks, Julie! Just linked up and followed your FB page – what a great thing you ladies have going on over there! :)
I LOVE this! We sell intermittently at our Farmer’s Market so this would be awesome for my son.
Thanks, Maggie! So fun that your family sells at the farmer’s market… What do you guys sell?
Thanks for linking up for our first Super Summer Saturday party. We featured you as one of our favorites this week! Hope you link up again with some more great ideas!
