If we had had something this Poggenpohl-chic when we were tots, we would have been very happy, indeed.

The largest wooden toymaker in the world, Hape has designed this awesome play kitchen using all-natural Baltic Birch plywood and water-based paints. PLUS the company has built three schools near its new headquarters in rural China.

Playtime just got a whole lot cooler, not to mention beneficent.
