Free Enterprise Day!


This past Thursday was Free Enterprise Day in Grace's second grade class.  The kids have to create a product or a service and then set up their desk as a store.  It's a really awesome lesson in supply and demand, marketing.  The kids earn paper quarters for the several weeks prior and then they use those to shop from their friends. 
 The entire second grade participates and you can get some really cute stocking stuffers!  

Grace made bottle cap chokers...
It is such an awesome lesson.  Mandy got to go "shop" for awhile before she went to school.  She thought it was great fun to get to shop on her own.  She had a whole bag full of stuff!

Blessings,
Leslie
