I wanted to start posting more Indigenous arts & crafts from India & found these when I was looking for Channapatna toys . Any of you ever have one of those little kitchen sets as a kid? I believe it's called Choppu in Tamil . Perhaps I'm fated to become a domestic Goddess (:P) , because I was really obsessed with them when I was a wee lass. This was also fueled by the fact that my grandmother indulged me greatly and went all out and bought my cousin and I a complete , working mini kitchen set that we (i.e. Gramms) even cooked a full fledged meal in.
The toys above are a Wooden Toy Box & puppet ; A doll from Gujarat, A Bullock Cart from Punjab & A Wooden Village house from somewhere in Southern India.
