Editor's Pick: The clever part about this set is that the food changes color when it touches water. Kids can use the water scoop or frying basket to pretend-cook, watching the burger and chicken nuggets slowly "cook through." The process is very visual and easy for little ones to grasp cause and effect.
The knobs on the grill make a clicking sound when turned, and with the tongs and sauce bottle included, the play experience feels pretty complete. Once the water dries, the color fades back, so it can be used again next time—no need to buy extra refills. It works well for outings or keeping little ones entertained at home; kids around three years old can figure it out and play on their own for a good while.
