Danish firm Ferm Living attempts to promote gender neutral play with its latest slick offering. Dubbed the 'Toro Play Kitchen,' the toy features a minimalist and accessible silhouette. It promotes inclusivity and seeks to liberate young ones from the limitations of cultural and social constructs. The unit entertains a noninvasive appearance with a wooden color palette. It boasts features like a cooking stove, a sink, some storage space, hooks and more. Farm Living intentionally made Toro compact and the toy can be placed in any home setting with minimal concern for space. The aesthetic is potently inspired by Nordic traditions.
The gender neutral play kitchen goes a long way in promoting inclusivity and showing that cooking is for everyone — boys, girls and those who chose to not abide by binary constructs.
