Fat Brain Pretendables Backyard Pizza Oven Set

(Fat Brain $49.99)

Our testers had a pizza party with this clever arched-shaped pizza oven with a clicking dial to turn on the heat. It comes complete with a pizza with six slices that are held together with Velcro-like sides. There are also stick able spots on top of each slice to hold the delicious possible toppings, such as mushrooms, pepperoni, bacon, pineapple, olives and peppers. There a paddle to shove the pie into the oven and pull it out, plus a pie cutter and server plus two little plates. Kids especially liked the shakers with chili flakes in one and cheese in the other. For pretending fun, there’s a menu for young entrepreneurs and hours of make believe fun, even when there’s no real pizza on the horizon. 34 pieces of pretend play that all store in the box between pizza parties. A happy choice for 3 and up.
