Today's Woot Write-up
If this were for a college kid, the shopping cart would be filled with nothing ramen noodles.
Tell a nineteen-year-old they've got to bag groceries all summer and what will they say? MAN, I WANTED TO DO STUFF WITH MY BUDS! Tell your three-year-old you bought them some Melissa & Doug play food and they'll say thank you- IF they aren't too busy opening the box.
And why is this? Well, that's simple. A teenager sees shopping as a chore, an obstacle, something standing between them and their goal of doing whatever they want. A pre-schooler, though? They aren't normally allowed to push the cart and pick out anything they want! So of COURSE it's exciting to them!
Just be aware, ordering a kid-sized deep fat fryer is both unsafe AND unhealthy.
