Guidecraft Review and Giveaway!

I love three things about Guidecraft toys and furniture--
1. They are well made and the quality shows through.
2. The toys and furniture all have education as a main theme-- you can see it's an important factor in the company.
3. The themes of the toys and furniture are all up to date and relevant to what our kids love! Sports, princesses, Tea Parties, Noah's Ark...

I was so thrilled to be able to review and giveaway a product from Guidecraft! Not only did I know that it was going to be well made and something that would last many years, but I also knew it would be a hit with the girls! My daughters are of the girly type-- anything princess or tea party related, they love! We received the Fancy Tea Party Kitchen. It came in a large box, and immediately the girls knew it was something special for them! Then my new reader in the house sounded it out the words in the side of the box and knew it was terrific! "F-A-N-C-Y T-E-A P-A-R-T-Y K-I-T-C-H-E-N!"


I opened the large box, but my husband immediately took over the building of the kitchen-- I could have done it, I swear! =)
There were many, many pieces, but fortunate for him, there was a handy instruction page that guided him through. The instructions could have been a bit easier to follow, but there was nice pictures displaying each piece and screw hole.
 
The girls loved it! Emma especially loved the clicking knobs on the front and fun removable sink! I love that it is sturdy and beautifully made, as well as looking cute too! It is painted in a sweet tea party theme of lavender, white and light pink. Cute tea pots adorn the front of the cabinets. Now all the girls need is some fake food and some pans and they will be set! 

Buy it: The Guidecraft Tea Party Kitchen comes alone or along with other Tea Party themed furniture-- check out the Tea Party Clothes Tree-- so cute! The Tea Party kitchen sells for $170 through their website
