After my post about making your own cardboard kitchen, I got tipped off by BG reader Alison about a tutorial for making a roll up kitchen playmat over on Balancing Everything. You could hand stitch or use a sewing machine plus if you want to fancy it up a bit, you could embroider and stitch some extra detail like putting hot and cold on the taps or red stitching for the heat on the cooker rings. Made from a mix of wool felt and pretty fabric on the reverse, this is brill for some portable pretend play fun. Get super cheap mini pots and pans from Ikea’s brilliant Duktig range.
