stupid gender politics.

Ask his mother what he played with when he was a little boy. That might change his mind.

Tell him to talk to:

Emeril Lagasse
Mario Batali
Jacques Pepin
Gordon Ramsey
and
Wolfgang Puck

I wonder what THEY played with.

If DH won't "let" me get a play kitchen for a DS (should ever have a DS), I would end up buying the Rose Petal cottage complete with all appliances.

Either one of us can disqualify a gift based on price, space, safety, etc but no one lets the other do anything.

From DDs day care it seems all kids love the play kitchens.

Get it for him anyway..i hate sexist toys, no reason for it..i'd also buy him a doll and a vacuum cleaner as well.

My girls have both boys and girls toys.

What's he afraid of if you get him a kitchen? He'll turn feminine or his penis will turn into a vagina?Chat Icon

Little Tikes makes this one. Does not look too girly too me!Chat Icon TRU has it on sale for $139. We have a different one for DS for Christmas but if it has been a bit cheaper, DH would have wanted that one. He liked that it had a grill so it was more "manly".

Re: DH won't let me get a kitchen for DS

I dont think it is a girl thing. I'm sure your DH knows that is a great career. He probably wants your son to be something manly and doesn't think men should be in the kitchen. Which is silly imo.

My DS had the fisher price kitchen and I would like to get him one of the Step 2 bigger kitchens one day.

Re: DH won't let me get a kitchen for DS

My brother is a chef. If the reasons for not getting it is he wants DS to get an easier job with health benefits when he grows up then maybe I wouldn't buy it. The reasoning that it is a "girl toy"? No way. Chat Icon

They have one that is a kitchen on one side and a grill set on the other. Maybe he would agree to that oneChat Icon
