For just one day only near the end of October. Play-Doh will be opening the doors to the Restaurant of Imagination in London. At this pop-up, kids will get to sculpt their own meals using the Busy Chef’s Restaurant playset, and then see their creations come to life as real-life meals that can be enjoyed by the whole family.
This pop-up was created based on research that shows eight out of 10 parents struggle with picky eaters on a daily basis, and a third of families describe mealtimes as "stressful" but more than half say that their children put up less of a fuss when they are involved in choosing what they are going to eat.
