Oops!

On page 48 of our Fall issue of blush, the toy kitchen set featured was incorrectly labeled the Discover Sounds Kitchen by Little Tikes. The kitchen set shown was actually the Super Chef Kitchen by Little Tikes.
 

The Super Chef Kitchen is a compact modern kitchen featuring a cabinet, microwave, oven, and refrigerator, all with doors that open. The stovetop burner makes electronic cooking sounds, and the set comes with coffee pot, place settings, and cutlery for little ones to play with.  The Super Chef Kitchen retails at $79.99

The Discover Sounds Kitchen by Little Tikes that we described on page 48 retails for $29.99
