Was going to buy one for my nephew but my husband was surprised and said that he thought play kitchens were for girls only. Would you get one for your son?

Yup we plan on getting one as a birthday or Christmas gift. They make plenty of gender neutral colored ones. Your nephew will probably love it.

Yup. We are getting him one for Christmas.
I don't believe in gender stereotyping toys. Statements like that make me a little ragey. Men cook, too.

@Ra: me too! my nephew's dad (husband's brother) is a vegan chef too, and I'm sure his son wants to be just like his dad.

@Leah: Aww...his parents would probably love the sentiment behind the gift!

Yes, absolutely!! We got one for our 1yr old for Christmas last year, and he still uses it almost daily. Make-believe play is super important!

Absolutely!!! I can't wait to get him one! And I can't wait to get him cooking and baking in the real kitchen too!

There are probably more male chefs than female (?)
But to answer the question -yes- if I was going purchase a play kitchen I would- regardless of the gender of my child.

@Ra: I was going to say the same.. Because men don't cook?

I'm getting my son one for Christmas! But I would ask the parents first just because that's a larger gift that takes up a decent amount of space. My MIL is forever buying my son big presents that I don't have room for, so I always think of that!

My son doesn't love his, it is a storage closet for his cars. He prefers his cutting food, pop up toaster and microwave.

Just got one! My husband took a second to be ok, but I reminded him that he cooks more than I do! It hasn't been delivered yet, but I think my son will love it!

It's one of the most played toys we have at home. Both of my boys love it and started playing with it before they could walk.
