Supermarket

With your Mom or Dad, choose a dish to prepare for a meal: a pudding, a salad, a sandwich - whatever you like. Check to see what supplies are on hand in your kitchen. Then, make a shopping list of the things you still need. While at the supermarket, help your parents find and select the foods on your list.

At the store, be sure to decide which items are the best buys and then make your selections. Also, write the price of each item on your list and keep a running total. hen you get home, check your prices against the sales receipt (sometimes stores make mistakes!).
