KidKraft created a toy kitchen set, which also features voice controls that are powered by Alexa. Alexa integration is able to provide a realistic play environment that can engage children users. Voice assistant features can be added to the toy kitchen by adding an Echo speaker.
The toy kitchen features a refrigerator, a sink, a stovetop, an oven, a microwave and more. The toy set is comprised of plastic, wood and felt, which combine to provide children with tactile feedback. The KidKraft kitchen is also equipped with RFID chips that will make appropriate noises that accompany kitchen actions, for example, if the user boils a pot, then boiling noises will be played.
