Product Overview

This 34-piece wooden pizza set turns pretend play into a working pizza counter, complete with a built-in oven for baking and storage. Kids layer felt sauce and cheese onto a wooden crust, add wooden pepperoni, olives, mushrooms, and peppers, then slide the pie into the oven with the paddle. Everything sticks together with self-stick tabs, so pizzas can be built, sliced, and served over and over. Finished pies get sliced with a rolling wooden cutter, boxed up, and delivered just like a real pizza shop order.

  • 34-piece wooden pizza-making set with a counter that doubles as storage and a built-in pizza oven
  • Felt sauce and cheese, wooden crust, and toppings (pepperoni, olives, mushrooms, and peppers) that stick together with self-stick tabs
  • Includes a grated cheese shaker, wooden paddle, pizza box, reusable menu for placing orders, a prep guide, and play money for payment
  • Rolling wooden cutter slices finished pizzas for serving
  • Running the counter, taking orders, and building pizzas step by step brings in role-play, sequencing, and fine motor practice with small pieces and tools
