1 Kids Knife Set Kids can do so much more than just watch (ahem, linger) in the kitchen; they can become little chefs, too! This set includes three plastic knives, a crinkle cutter, fruit cutters in fun shapes, a Y-peeler and a cutting board. Do some skill- and confidence-building this Thanksgiving season by teaching the littles how to use kitchen tools safely and encouraging them to be a part of the cooking process. Bonus: When kids help prepare and cook food, they’re also more likely to give it a taste. Win-win. $8.99 on Amazon
2 Toddler Tower Have a little one who needs to be nearby all the time, even in the kitchen? This sturdy toddler tower safely keeps kiddos close, in a place all their own! Built for safety, the tower has an anti-skid strip for when they climb to the top of their perch. And it grows with them, with adjustable heights for different stages of life. When not in use, the tower can be folded in seconds for easy storage. $134.99 on Amazon likely to give it a taste. Win-win. $8.99 on Amazon
3 Mommy + Me Baprons Cooking up something yummy can be a bit messy. Thankfully, these adorable matching aprons can preserve outfits while also looking super stylish.

4 The Complete Cookbook for Young Chefs There is so much to learn from cooking! Kids can discover how to measure, follow a recipe, try new foods, gain independence and confidence, too! With over 100 recipes included, this book encourages children to try new meals while honing their emerging cooking skills! $19.99 at Target/ Walmart/Amazon
5 Tummy Time Roller Just because baby isn’t quite ready to chow down on those big family feasts doesn’t mean they can’t be pint-sized foodies. Lay the roller toy flat for tummy time, turn pages, and use it as a book, or stand it on its side to promote crawling. No matter how it’s used, baby will love this toy’s crinkle sounds, friendly foodie faces and mirror, too! $19.99 at melissaanddoug.com
