I bought some mini hand-sanitizers from Bath and Body Works the other day. I had the crew with me at the time and June bought one for herself, along with a cute little holder for it. When she came home she looked at the assortment I had bought for other people and she started to covet my blue one. She asked for it multiple times, and I finally told her that I would take her back to the store and she could get her own. (After all, this is why I give them an allowance.)
So back we went and she brought her allowance, all $17 dollars she had saved. And then she spent it ALL on hand sanitizer. She found every color holder they had and then chose a sanitizer to go with each one. I tried to talk her out of it, but in the end, I would much rather she spend her money on clean hands than on candy or dollar store toys that will break within the hour.
She is still happy with her purchase today, and we all had clean hands this afternoon. (Oh, and they smell good too.)
I have a bunch of those around the house too. I make the boys take them to school, I give them to their teachers, etc. Can't have clean enough hands.
ReplyDeleteGotta love what they choose to spend their allowance on!
