Not only does my son love this but his little friends do to!  It's been a life saver, he can be part of kitchen life (and face it most of life happens in the kitchen), help me cook, eat at the counter (better than sitting because he doesn't sit still anyways), and best of all at Christmas time it's perfect for doing his hand print ornaments and other crafts.  It folds up and goes right into the closet when we don't need it and it looks great so you don't mind it when it's out.
