Last night was the elementary school carnival. We took our 4 boys. I only bought $10 worth of tickets figuring I would buy more when they were gone. We gave the older 3 each some tickets and they wondered around on their own while we stayed with the 5 yr old. Everytime we checked with the boys to see if they needed more tickets we were told no. They kept checking and re-checking to make sure it was really a game that they wanted to play or that they liked the prizes. I practically had to order them to play some games so we could use all the tickets we bought and get out of there.

Sounds to me like your kids have been taught the value of a dollar. Nothing wrong with that at all!! Great job, Mom!!
