See this table setting in our play house center? Looks delicious, doesn't it? That's because I stopped using that dinky, plastic play food you usually buy for children to use, and starting buying dog toys instead.
Yes, you read that right. Dog toys. Tough, durable, able-to-take-a-beating-from-a-mastiff-and-a-class-of-Kindergarteners dog toys. Yeah, they may cost a bit more, but they last for YEARS. Plus they're very realistic. And more importantly they're non-toxic if the kids put them in their mouth (which we all know they will at some point.)
Hint: Check out your dollar stores!
(The dog toys are as follows (from lower left and going clockwise: hamburger, hot dog - chicken quarter, bacon - hamburger, t-bone - hot dog - and of course the sundae in the middle.)
