Open-ended living for independent learning
Toddlers learn best when they touch things, smell things, taste things, and see things. Look for ways to provide hands-on, firsthand experiences to encourage independence and self-directed learning.

Use a damp, clean cloth to wipe the surfaces. Slight maintenance may be required over time.
Don’t leave or store your Piccalio products outside. They are protected by a lacquer coating but are made of wood and are therefore susceptible to damage caused by exposure to rain and wet conditions.
We recommend keeping our wood products in dry, non-humid environments, and kept away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances that produce heat.

My baby is 13 months old and even tho he is not into cooking that much ( because he prefers eating before he cuts the banana) we loved it so much.

- Stephanie T.Verified BuyerReviewingMini CutterI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars2 months agoGreat first tool for littles ones!
This is perfect for my 13 month old. He’s able to explore and practice helping in the kitchen without me worrying about him cutting himself. He can’t operate it properly himself just yet but he’s learning. It’s easy to clean and the perfect size for his little hands and stores away easily.

Sorry …. Has not been used yet, but is awesome!!
- Alexis W.Verified BuyerReviewingMini CutterI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars3 months agoGreat quality!
I ordered this as a gift for my daughter’s first birthday and was super pleased with the quality. It’s heavy but not too heavy for a toddler to hold. It seems durable too, I don’t think it would break easily- the handle is nice and thick unlike cheap alternatives. Cleaning/maintenance is very straightforward too- I’ve hand washed it immediately after use and have not left it soaking in water. far so good!
