She really wanted a cash register, but she had $20 and the cash register cost $40. "$40 equals two $20 bills and you only have one $20." She took it well, though she did come back to stare at that cash register a few times! We talked about being able to buy things online for less money and that same cash register cost only $24 on Amazon, but she really wanted a toy she could have in her hands that day.
We looked at puppets, play foods, magnets, jigsaw puzzles, ant farms, balls, bowling sets, paints, books... After much debate and comparison, she chose a set of Do-A-Dot markers ("paint markers") and a Do-A-Dot coloring book.
Me: are you coloring the octopus blue?
Her: no, I'm coloring the water on the octopus blue!
