Pretend Grocery Store

The pretend play of buying groceries helps kids learn social and language skills, quantity and value, to make choices and problem solving. 

Set Up an old bookshelf with a toy cash register and toy shopping cart.

Collect old magazines, cereal boxes, clean milk cartons and other empty containers; play money and imitation fruit and vegetables (can be made with paper-mâché). You will also need bags and price tags for items.

The shop can expand its inventory with toys, clothing, or even a cafe. The limit is your child's imagination.
