Imperfect fruits and vegetables are just as nutritious as the pretty ones on the shelves! We can help our children understand this and the importance of reducing food waste with the Wonky Fruit & Vegetables set. Even if a piece of produce looks funky, it’s still worth saving and using instead of throwing away. This playset also helps enhance fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. It includes a pretend knife and 5 sliceable pieces of produce: an apple, pear, carrot, tomato and cucumber.

  • Teaching children that wonky and imperfect looking fruits and vegetables are just as good as others
  • Aims to reduce food waste by teaching children through visibility of imperfect produce that it should not be thrown out
  • This set includes a pretend play knife and 5 sliceable fruits and vegetables.
  • Sustainably made in Thailand using chemical-free rubberwood, formaldehyde-free glue, organic pigments and water-based dyes.
