WHAT IT IS
Whether it’s a rainy April day or a sunny day in June, the My First Picnic Basket from Step2 is here to make play a walk in the park — literally. It’s a large picnic basket on wheels, filled with food accessories and a water-resistant blanket. The 29 accessories are charcuterie-inspired. There’s sliced brie, a jar of jam, macarons, a “sliceable” pear, and a sandwich. It also comes with tea cups and utensils for two kids.
WHY WE LOVE IT
My four year old is absolutely obsessed with picnics, so this toy feels made for her. It doesn’t matter if it’s raining outside or a random freezing day; we can have a picnic any time we want. It’s designed with little ones in mind, so kids as young as 18 months can learn to love pretend play too. The basket is on wheels, so kids who want to do everything themselves (read: all toddlers) can push it around with ease. All the accessories, including the blanket, are washable, so if families really do take it to the park, they can clean up easily. At the end of the day, it all stores back in the basket. Personally, I also love that the food accessories are grown-ups’ favorite picnic snacks — it’s just missing the white wine.
IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW
This picnic set comes with tea cups and utensils for two kids, so if more kids than that are playing, they’ll have to share.
