I know there are tons of items that kids can use, but I wish they had things specifically for kids (smaller, lighter, a little less expensive, etc).I think kids being in the kitchen is so important and would love to help other families start doing it more often.That's it - just sharing a thought :chef:

We used to - they didn't sell well, and were discontinued.
 
Although that is a GREAT idea... my kids LOVE to help cook in the kitchen... wont let them touch my knives, stones, or some other products though... they like the food chopper :D
 
I hope they bring things back. My daughter loves the cookie making set and the apron! She has one of each at my house and my mom's house! Of course, I didn't sell a ton. Everyone wants to buy toys for kids. I love giving gifts that create time! Cooking, reading, board games, etc. Speaking of...I think my daughter is done going potty. Back to Memory! Mine's gone!
 
Kid's Apron Set is on the Outlet this month for only $8. I wish they would bring back Kid stuff, too. I just did a Mommy & Me show & it would have been nice to have something beyond the Kids' cookbook!
 
Just let HO know! If enough people request it, then it'll happen;)

Hasn't this been discontinued? For HO promoting the family at the dinner table they're sure making it hard for us to get help putting dinner on that table. lol Or maybe not. My kids are sometimes more hindrance than help. I'd like to see more kids things, too.

I was thinking the same thing Marisa!
I sent an email to HO telling them I wish they had more stuff and mentioned how they're trying to enforce family time at dinner, but are taking kids out of the equation.

Lindsay, I think that's great that you shared your thought with us AND Home Office, because that's the way to get a change to come about. I just sent the same thing, so you know they'll at least have gotten 2 requests for more kids items.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there any plans to introduce more kid-friendly cooking tools in the future?

While there are no specific announcements regarding new kid-friendly products, the company values customer input and may consider expanding the line of kid items if there is enough interest expressed by customers.

What existing products can be used for cooking with kids?

Many existing products can be safely used with kids, such as measuring cups, mixing bowls, and kid-friendly utensils. These tools can help engage children in cooking while ensuring safety and ease of use.

How can I provide feedback about wanting more kid items?

You can provide feedback through the company's official website or by contacting your Pampered Chef consultant. Sharing your thoughts and suggestions helps the company understand customer preferences and may influence future product offerings.
