Hunting for Treasure

Since Trace is learning in school about the different values of coins and money. I thought it would be fun to spend part of a Saturday going around to various garage sales and seeing what we might find. Trace had $10.00 to spend and I helped him figure out if he had enough to buy something and/or if he would get any change. He spent the day asking; "If I get this, will I get any re-change?" I thought it was cute he called it "re-change" without any prompting or direction from me. He found a Halloween decoration he liked, puzzles, star wars spaceships and even a pizza hat. I had a great time watching him decide what he liked or didn't like. He was patient if I was just looking at stuff and he couldn't see anything he liked, he was kind to the people selling their wares and he was so excited to show Dad what he ended up with when the day was through.
