Montessori Wooden Cutting Kitchen Set — Pretend Fruit & Vegetable Play Toy

Hands-on imaginative play — teaches cutting, counting & sharing

The Purshay Montessori Wooden Cutting Kitchen Set turns everyday kitchen actions into playful learning. This wooden pretend-play kit includes a chopping board, a rounded child-safe wooden knife, and a selection of fruit & vegetable pieces that split and rejoin (velcro or magnetic joins depending on SKU). Designed with Montessori principles in mind, the set develops fine-motor skills, hand–eye coordination, vocabulary (names of foods), early numeracy (counting pieces) and role-play routines.

What’s included (typical SKU — confirm with your supplier before publishing)

• 1 × wooden chopping board (smooth, rounded edges)

• 1 × child-safe wooden knife (blunt edge, rounded tip)

• 6–12 × wooden fruit & vegetable pieces (each splits into two halves; velcro or magnet joins)

• 1 × storage tray or small crate (depending on variant)

Key features

• Montessori-friendly: tactile wooden pieces and simple join/undo actions encourage independent learning and concentration.

Age guidance & learning outcomes

Recommended for 18 months – 4+ years depending on small-part classification and your supplier’s exact guidance — list the supplier age rating clearly on the product page. The cutting action supports pincer grip development, bilateral coordination and early counting practice. 

Care & maintenance
Wipe wooden pieces with a damp cloth; do not soak. Reapply a food-safe oil to unfinished wood occasionally if recommended by supplier. Keep velcro/magnetic joins clean and replace if worn.
