Mentari: Mini Mart

Welcome to the corner store — what can we get you today?

The Wooden Mini Mart is a complete pretend grocery store in one beautiful set. The retro-style stand features a charming clock and is painted in soft, vintage French colors — making it as lovely to look at on a playroom shelf as it is to play with. The shelves are perfect for arranging stock, and the set comes with a small till, three coins, and twelve different grocery items so children can run a fully stocked shop from day one.

The grocery line-up is brilliantly varied: jam, juice, coffee, chips, sardines, toilet paper, cat food, milk, an apple, two donuts, and two baguettes. It's everything a tiny shopkeeper needs to run a thriving corner store — restocking shelves, serving customers, ringing up totals, and counting change. The play opens up endless social and language scenarios, and the fixed setup means it lives happily in a play corner ready to be played with any time.

Skills & development:

• Imaginative and role play - running a shop builds storytelling, social confidence, and creativity
• Social and emotional development - serving customers, taking turns, and cooperating teaches empathy
• Language and numbers - counting coins, naming groceries, and shop dialogue builds vocabulary and early numeracy
• Fine motor skills - arranging stock and handling small items develops hand precision
