Need help with play pots and pans... UPDATE AT END OF THREAD

[mykidsmom]

I am on the search for a set of realistic looking pots and pan for my 2 yr olds play kitchen.

Can someone please recommend a set that you actually already own. I looked at TRU but did not see what I was looking for either. Since so many are mail order places, I wanted to ask those who own them already so they can tell me first hand about the ones you like.

Thanks!

I don't have them but Target has a new aisle with wooden toys and they also have some new cookware. I liked that they sold individual pots and pans (stainless looking) for 5ish bucks if I remember correctly. I don't remember much about the size or weight but it might be worth a quick look-see :)

DS just uses my kitchen stuff in his kitchen (an old frying pan, a few spoons and other items I don't need that often).

Have you seen the set at Costco? Stainless steel pans, whisks and ladle. Very cute, light but well made (~$15 with apron if I remember right)

Costco is not carrying these anymore. Their toy aisle completely disappears right after Christmas.

I would love input from people who already have a set they love. I have seen lots of sets online, but want real life experience. I want a set that looks real, but is not grown up size and not too small either. Thanks and keep the ideas coming!

We got this set before Christmas and it's great. Too bad they don't still have them.

I ended up buying the ones at Target. They have a whole new line of CUTE kitchen stuff. The pans were only $4.99 each and exactly what I was looking for! Thanks to the person who suggested it!!
