Shopping Basket with Play Food | 23-Piece Grocery Market Set
Transform your early childhood classroom into a bustling grocery store with the Shopping Basket with Play Food set. This comprehensive 23-piece collection is designed to provide endless opportunities for imaginative play and learning, making it an essential addition to your dramatic play area. Children will delight in stocking their market with realistic-looking grocery items, including 8 empty play canned foods, 10 empty play food boxes, and 4 empty play bottles, all housed within a sturdy basket measuring 11" x 8".
This set not only sparks creativity but also encourages essential life skills such as counting, sorting, and organizing.

The tactile experience of handling the various items enhances fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination, making playtime both fun and educational.
Ideal for children aged 3 years and up, the Shopping Basket with Play Food set promotes social interaction as kids work together to create their shopping lists, share items, and role-play various grocery store scenarios.
