My son is three and his imagination is growing everyday. I love toys that allow him to pretend and learn while having fun. Step2 understands the power and importance of pretend play, and works hard to make sure all their products are fun and educational!
The Step2 Welcome Home Kitchen is a perfect addition to our home due to it’s unique features, smaller size, and easy assembly!
The Step2 Lifestyle Welcome Home Kitchen is one of many different options when it comes to picking the perfect play kitchen for your family. I liked the Welcome Home Kitchen for it’s smaller size, allowing it to fit into our playroom with out over crowding anything.

My Review
Unlike some other Step2 Products this assembly on this kitchen was crazy simple!
I was able to have it put together from start to finish in less than 20 minutes. As with any other Step2 product I do recommend carefully using a power screwdriver, otherwise your hand could get pretty tired. There were very few screws in the Step2 Lifestyle Welcome Home Kitchen, so it was put together pretty quickly!
My son loves playing with this kitchen. He loves cooking food for whomever will entertain him at the time. The first thing he cooked for me was carrots, pancakes, and hot tea! I love how he comes up with his meals, and watching the interesting ways he chooses to incorporate his other toys… Bet you didn’t know cars could cook!
I also love that there is a play phone in his kitchen. I love listening to the pretend conversations he has with his friends. It is really cute to watch.
The only thing I wish I had known prior to assembling it was there is no play food that comes with this kitchen. That is a separate purchase, but something we can easily add as well as more plates, silverware, or other Step2 accessories.

Looks like your son loves his new kitchen. I’d love to get this for my twin nieces.
What a great kitchen! It has so many details for kids to really pretend like they are actually cooking!
that’s amazing that you were able to put it together in less than 20 minutes! I want to get this for my boy once he’s old enough to play with it but just the look of it i thought i’d never be able to assemble it and it’d stay in the box forever but after reading your review 🙂 I know it’llbe easy 🙂 thanks!
We’re getting Sweet T a play kitchen for Christmas. This one seems ideal!
So cute! My boys used to love their kitchens when they were little.
I LOVE Step 2 products.
What a cute kitchen. My daughter had one like this a few years ago.
I love that it takes up less room and is easy to assemble, my daughter would love this
Very nice!
What a cute set! Great review.
That is such a fun kitchen!
I love the bins it comes with to store the accessories, perfect kitchen for small spaces!
I love that it’s easy to assemble! Such a cute little kitchen!
My daughter has that same kitchen!! But not the recyle bin.. I like that!
This is a pretty cool item. A big difference from what was available when I was younger vs. now. It really does a good job of resembling a real kitchen.
The assembly actually looks like something I could do! Great review.
I love toys like these, they definitely help promote creativity and a healthy imagination.
He looks like he’s really enjoying his kitchen.
Very cute! My kids have one and love it 🙂
We loved the kitchens we had when mine were growing up. My daughter still plays with her.
Wonderful review……my niece is wanting one and now I am thinking she is right
I would love to win this for my grandkids. What fun? I know they would love it as it has a variety of things to do.
This is a great review!
My boys have a kitchen market and they love it. this one is cute too
My 3yo has been asking for a new kitchen playset. She already has a perfectly functioning one. I need to stop her from looking at the catalogs that come in the mail.
Cute! My daughter grew out of her play kitchen too fast.
I’ve been wanting to get one of these for my girls to play with, especially now that it is winter time.
That’s so awesome! Shane would love that, he has tons of play food but no kitchen to use it with! I love that this one isn’t all pink & girly- boys like kitchens too!
looks so cute!
What an adorable little kitchen! I would love something like that for my little kiddos and their oodles of play food. I could see them now just having a ball! Thanks for sharing!
Super fun.
My children loved play kitchens when they were younger.
This is so cute. Im glad your son loves it.
These kinds of toys that breed imaginative play are the BEST! My son loves to pretend cook too. Can you imagine a kiddo finding this under the Christmas tree this year?
And by the way, I knew cars could cook. 🙂
this is so awesome- i love this.. and i know my daughter would love to play with it
I love the recycle bin , this would be such a fun addition to our play area.
My son would LOVE this, so that is who it is for. He would love the phone and electronic stove best!
I love that it only requires two double A batteries!
How fun! I love how easy it is to assemble! This looks so neat for kids, hours of fun! Great review, thank you!!!
I’m glad you said to use a power screwdriver, I would have never guessed lol I know my great niece has tons of things she could use for food or I’ll go buy her some play food lol Thanks for sharing 🙂
I love how easy it is to put together! I could probably do it! Love that they included a recycling bin!
Oh I really love the size of it too! We dont have tons of room but really would love one for Carter! He is just getting into the playfood and think this size is perfect!
I can’t wait to get something like this for my daughter 🙂
The more I look at this, the more I like it. I love all the little details, like the disk rack. You can tell a lot of thought went into designing it. Totally something I would consider buying my daughter for Christmas!
what a great toy to foster creativity!
