    Default bargain for open ended role play

    Not sure if anyone has posted these yet but I bought this fab market stall from ikea yesterday. Very sturdy and endless uses! A bargain at £10!

    This is my DD not a mindee

    No it's cardboard, hence the price! Very sturdy though!

    Yeah easily I should think, It's just a slot fit one! Takes two mins to put together

    I saw that in Ikea but I wondered how long a cardboard one would last

    My own lo and 3 big ones have played with it for the past two days and its not taken any toll yet, the one in the ikea play area was a bit grubby but still solid and clearly played with.

    Wow that looks great - Has it got a printed picture on the inside as well as the outside?

    Its just the roof and front that's stripy. The rest is plain. I'm going to pop some velcro on and laminate different shop scenes for children to stick on to it. The back is open to store things underneath or allow little ones to sit under it

    I like the look of that!

    Love your idea about sticking on different shop scenes.
