Play kitchen AND shop?

[sarahsmummy]

Looking for DD Christmas present and thinking of toy kitchen/shop. I don't really mind plastic or wood, but I would like there to be a lot of different things to do with it - hence thinking of one that was a kitchen on one side and a shop on the other - a friend has a Fisher Price one bought about 4 years ago but I don't think they make it any more. It also can't be huge hence erring more towards plastic.

I have found this one argos but it's a bit TOO pink and orange and also there aren't that many drawers/cupboards/shelves to play with IYSWIM.

This Little Tikes has more the sort of thing I mean, but with laundry rather than a shop bit!

I do like the way the ELC one ELC seems to have loads to do (and is blue rather than pink!) but again, not the versatility of a shop.

Can anyone recommend one?

we bought this
clicky

for our ds(3y) last xmas, its been a best buy for us. its played with every day without fail,our 2yo dd also loves it as do any older kids when they visit.its pretty sturdy too,well worth the money.

we have a cheap toy kitchen and the supermarket sazm has just linked to and they were both so cheap and get sooooooo much use by the kids that i really don't regret having both.

the kitchen we have is this one and comes with metal pans and is very neat and compact. it cost us 40 euros and has been used every day for 2 years.

the kitchen is definitely the favourite but they do play with the supermarket an awful lot as well, however i find that they'll play quite happily with the kitchen singly but they seem to need to play the supermarket together which doesn't go as well and if you only have one child it might not get much use uunless freinds are around.

we had a kitchen as well as the shop,the one we had was from tesco,but argos have it too
here

we've had it for nearly 2yrs and its great.

thanks. I really like both of those - good to hear a recommendation from the Argos one as at that price you wonder what's wrong! ....but do really like the red one!
