Cash Register Jonesing

Posted by Missy W. @ 12:43 PM

All of a sudden my child who was Anti New Toys is all about her (bulging) birthday wish list. Anyone have a good cash register suggestion? Sy really wants this one from Learning Resources. One of her pals has it and I’ve watched five kids simultaneously go bananas for it. But it’s expensive! It lights up! It has batteries! Do we really need all of that in our play kitchen?

go for it, but i wanted to throw out a couple of other options. Camille had one from PBK that had a microphone where you could call for “check out on aisle six” or “price check on checkout one, please!” and it was a hit for years (heck, we still have it and noah loves it now). they don’t make it anymore and the current pbk one doesn’t look like any great shakes so check these out:

this one is pretty much just like the pbk one was minus a little style.

here’s another with the microphone:

happy cash registering….
