A spatula device operable for handling heated foodstuffs and manipulate a baking pan or container providing a unique and convenient integrally operable cooling chamber for receiving, cooling, and removing the baking pan or container from a complementary toy oven. The spatula device automatically retains the baking pan or container in the cooling chamber when the baking pan or container is removed from the toy oven used in combination and is operable to manually release the baking pan or container from the cooling chamber when the device is manipulated by a user. The spatula device includes a handle and a cooling chamber coupled to a first end with the chamber having an access opening defined in a wall, and the chamber manufactured from a thermochromic material capable of changing color corresponding to the temperature of the chamber.

What is claimed is: 1. A toy oven and a spatula device for manipulating a container used in combination with the toy oven, comprising: a toy oven having a housing containing a heating chamber with an attached feed chute defining an access opening to the heating chamber; and a spatula device including a handle having a chamber coupled to a first end, including an access opening defined in a wall of the chamber and operating as a cooling chamber for a received container, further including a latch assembly coupled to the cooling chamber including a barrier and an actuating bar operative to automatically retain the container in the cooling chamber when received and also manually release the container from the cooling chamber when the actuating bar is manipulated by a user. 2. The combination as recited in claim 1, further including at least one humped shoulder coupled to a wall of the feed chute for engagement with at least one protrusion coupled to the barrier of the latch assembly to automatically move the barrier to block the access opening of the cooling chamber retaining a received container when the cooling chamber end of the spatula device is removed from the feed chute of the toy oven. 3. The combination as recited in claim 1, wherein the cooling chamber comprises a temperature resistant plastic material. 4. The combination as recited in claim 1, wherein the cooling chamber comprises a thermochromic material capable of changing color corresponding to the temperature of the cooling chamber. 5. The combination as recited in claim 1, comprising a curved pusher end coupled at an end of said handle. 6. The combination as recited in claim 1, wherein the cooling chamber includes a top wall, a bottom wall, and first and second side walls with the actuating bar coupled at the top wall of the cooling chamber. 7. The combination as recited in claim 6, wherein the barrier of the latch assembly is pivotally attached to the bottom wall of the cooling chamber and spans the access opening with the barrier operative for lifting upright off the bottom wall blocking the access opening. 8. The combination as recited in claim 7, wherein the length of the barrier includes a first end and a second end with a protrusion coupled to at least one end of the first and second ends for engagement with a humped shoulder attached at the feed chute of the heating chamber to automatically lift the barrier upright blocking the access opening after the container is received in the cooling chamber. 9. The combination as recited in claim 1, wherein the cooling chamber includes a top wall, a bottom wall, first and second side walls and a curved rear wall integral with the first end of the handle opposite the access opening. 10. The combination as recited in claim 9, wherein the barrier of the latch assembly is pivotally attached to the bottom wall of the cooling chamber and spans the access opening with the barrier operative for lifting upright off the bottom wall blocking the access opening, wherein the length of the barrier includes a first end and a second end with a protrusion coupled to at least one end of the first and second ends for engagement with a humped shoulder attached at the feed chute of the heating chamber to automatically lift the barrier upright blocking the access opening after the container is received in the cooling chamber. 11. A toy oven and a spatula device for manipulating a container used in combination with the toy oven, comprising: a toy oven having a housing containing a heating chamber with an attached feed chute defining an access opening to the heating chamber; and a spatula device including a handle having a chamber coupled to a first end, including an access opening defined in a wall of the chamber and operating as a cooling chamber for a received container, further including a barrier coupled to the cooling chamber operative to automatically retain the container in the cooling chamber when received. 12. The combination as recited in claim 11, further including at least one shoulder coupled to a wall of the feed chute for engagement with at least one protrusion coupled to the barrier to automatically move the barrier to block the access opening of the cooling chamber retaining a received container when the cooling chamber end of the spatula device is removed from the feed chute of the toy oven. 13. The combination as recited in claim 11, wherein the cooling chamber comprises a temperature resistant plastic material. 14. The combination as recited in claim 11, wherein the cooling chamber comprises a thermochromic material capable of changing color corresponding to the temperature of the cooling chamber. 15. The combination as recited in claim 11, comprising a curved pusher end coupled at an end of said handle. 16. The combination as recited in claim 11, wherein the cooling chamber includes a top wall, a bottom wall, and first and second side walls and wherein the barrier is pivotally coupled with the bottom wall of the cooling chamber and spans the access opening with the barrier operative for lifting upright off the bottom wall blocking the access opening. 17. The combination as recited in claim 16, wherein the length of the barrier includes a first end and a second end with a protrusion coupled to at least one end of the first and second ends for engagement with a humped shoulder attached at the feed chute of the heating chamber to automatically lift the barrier upright blocking the access opening after the container is received in the cooling chamber. 18. A toy oven and a spatula device for manipulating a container used in combination with the toy oven, comprising: a toy oven having a housing containing a heating chamber with an attached feed chute defining an access opening to the heating chamber; and a spatula device including a handle having a chamber coupled to a first end, including an access opening defined in a wall of the chamber and operating as a cooling chamber for a received container, further including a latch assembly coupled to the cooling chamber including a barrier operative to retain the container in the cooling chamber when received. 19. The combination as recited in claim 18, further comprising an actuating bar operative with the latch assembly and the barrier to automatically retain the container in the cooling chamber when received and also manually release the container from the cooling chamber when the actuating bar is manipulated by a user. 20. The combination as recited in claim 19, wherein the cooling chamber includes a top wall, a bottom wall, and first and second side walls with the actuating bar coupled at the top wall of the cooling chamber.
