Back from the kids house...........
It took DD 3.5 hours to mow lawn with push mower. She was WHIPPED. I played with littles, taught the 5 year the value of coins.
He had a money Bongo game. I told him to go get a quarter, nickel, dime and penny from his bank.
So we learned about what each one is worth.
Then at lunch I taught the 5 year the VALUE of money. I explained the hotdogs he was eating cost 5 dollars. I ask if he knew where money comes from........
His response priceless........ "well, people just give it to you...."
WELL GIGI- went to work to explain that as a kid yes you have people do that, but as a big person you GO TO WORK to get money....... That is why "daddy" leaves every day to go to work to get money to buy hotdogs.
He truly was interested.
He said" Well how do you know how much stuff is?
I said- because the person selling hotdogs will tell you
HIM: I want to buy hotdogs some day.......
ME: Then when you are a big boy you will find a job you like and buy hotdogs.
HIM: Can I buy a car?
ME: If you have enough money- see DGS...... Adults work to get what we want and need.
Him: Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh
Enough of a lesson for one day!!!! He learned money is not freely given but earned, and the value of a quarter, dime, nickel, and penny. How to count change!
