$5 + $5 = New Truck

Cannon and Colson each got $5 from Granny Joy for Valentine's Day.  Last week they finally got to spend their money.  We went to Target and they search every isle...twice.  They looked at every toy that was 'cool' and pushed every button they could.  Many of the toys they wanted were more than $5, but it was a great lesson in reading the price of each toy and deciding if it was more or less than they had to spend.


Finally, the boys decided to put their money together and buy a truck and trailer.  I thought they would fight over it when they got home, but I stressed how important it was to share since they paid for it together with their own money.  And, knock on wood, they have done a nice job playing together!


Thanks, Granny Joy!
