With role play being such an important part of young children's development, UK toy company HTI introduced a range of products under their Cosy Village brand name. Whilst the toys are mainly designed for little girls aged 3-7 years old, there's no doubt that boys will join in the fun too.
The showcase Cosy Village toy has to be the fantastic 360° Magic Bakery playset. One side features a pretend oven that cleverly lets a piece of toy bread rise, or allows a croissant to change a golden colour when cooked. All sorts of fantastic baking produce can then be displayed on a counter and racks on the other side, and 'sold' or given to friends and relatives.

Featuring a bright range of colours and materials, the Cosy Village collection builds up into a matching set of really useful role play items. Girls can play with all of them on their own, or invite their friends around to have a party. A clever shopping trolley also converts into a useful rucksack for away days. The Cosy Village Magic Oven is also available as separate stand-alone toy, and is a great addition to the toy food counter that sells a selection of pretend sweets and treats.
If kids want a toy cooker to play with, parents are completely spoilt for choice with dozens at price points to match any budget, however big or small.
We all know that kids love to copy everything that their mums and dads do, and cooking is no exception.
Budding mechanics, chefs, doctors or grocers will all love the great choice of role play toys that are available.
The toy toaster is undoubtedly one of the top selling items in the ranges of role play items that are based around commonly used household appliances.
