My sons have really enjoyed the activities in this book. We shop for grocery every two weeks and this has been a lot of educational fun.

My 5 boys, ages ranging from 8 - 14, met up with other homeschooled boys every Monday at our local grocery store. We had permission from the store to meet and do Grocery Cart Math. The kids paired up and had a race to see who could get done first. It was a favorite activity for the entire school year.
