What you are actually paying for

The anatomy of a kitchen that lasts

Most mud kitchens fail at the same five places. Here is what we do differently at each one.

  1. Utensil rail with hooksWooden spoons and ladles hang where a three-year-old can reach them, so the kit stays visible and gets used.
  2. Two lift-out stainless sinksNot a moulded dip that holds stagnant water. These fill, carry, tip and wash, then come out to dry.
  3. Four burners, wooden knobsPainted rings and chunky turnable knobs. Enough kitchen to suggest the game, not enough to script it.
  4. Solid spruce, hand-paintedReal boards, sanded splinter-free, in an outdoor acrylic that does not blister. No chipboard anywhere in the build.
  5. Full-width shelfPots, pans and treasure live here. On the storage models it becomes a cabinet with doors.

How it works

From your order to the first mud pie

  1. 1You choose

    A size, a colour and a worktop finish. Two minutes on the product page, and the photos update as you click.

  2. 2We build it by hand

    Your kitchen is cut, sanded, painted and checked in a small workshop. Nothing is pulled off a shelf.

  3. 3It arrives assembled

    Kerbside on a pallet, 7 to 14 days after ordering, tracked and free. Lift it off, stand it where the mud is, and play starts the same day.

Good to know

Questions parents ask us

Will it survive the British winter outdoors?

Yes. Solid spruce and weatherproof outdoor paints are made for it. Tip the sinks out, keep the feet off waterlogged ground, and add the fitted cover if you want it looking new for longer.

How long does delivery take?

Every kitchen is handcrafted to order and delivered within 7 to 14 days, tracked and free anywhere on the UK mainland.

Does it need assembly?

No. Your kitchen arrives fully assembled on a pallet. Lift it off, stand it in place and the play can start the same day.

What age is a mud kitchen for?

From age 3 upwards, and most used between 4 and 8. The worktop height suits toddlers through to primary-school children.
