How does the pretend squirt work?
Each condiment bottle has a built-in string that acts as a pretend squirt. When a child tips the bottle downward, the string slides out, simulating ketchup or mustard coming out of a real squeeze bottle. This simple mechanical feature adds a satisfying interactive element to imaginative play, helping kids mimic real-life condiment use without any mess.
What can kids do with the double-sided menu card?
The included menu card is reusable and double-sided. One side lists different order ideas like a hot dog with mustard or a burger with ketchup and mayo. The other side has a blank space for kids to create their own combos. This encourages decision-making and role-playing as they take orders from family or friends. Pair it with other play food for a full restaurant experience.
