We'e been obsessed with this play kitchen since we saw it in Jessica Alba's Instagram stories. It's made of sustainable Baltic birch and solid North American maple, and it's topped with water-based, low-VOC, and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs)-free finishes. It's the Rolls-Royce of play kitchens, and if you can swing it, your child will be the envy of the neighborhood.

For a retro vibe, this KidKraft vintage play kitchen is a clear winner. Kids can not only cook imaginary meals in the oven or microwave, but they can also take a quick phone call on the cordless phone in between meal-prep sessions. It looks like something from the original Jetsons, and we love that.

It's bright and fun, and our tester particularly loved that the snap-on high chair looks so much like what they use for her at restaurants.
