Auggie's Market Day Part 2: Selling!

While the initial buying interest of all the kids was focused on gobbling up as much sugar as possible, our table did end up being a big success. The kids were intrigued by the colorful bugs and shapes, and probably would have attempted to eat them if I hadn't insisted that they really were crayons. Auggie loved the exchange of goods for money, and had a great time running around buying things himself. Even Eland figured the process out and made a few purchases of his own. Selling-wise, our biggest success was the interest of the teachers. They were very excited about our crayons and one even bought eight of them. :)

The day was perfect for the outdoor market, and all the kids loved it
We made a sign, but little did I know just how into it the other kids and parents got. Our stall was a little shabby compared to some other ones. :)
A glow stick!
Butterfly cookie on a stick!
Sandrine joined in the fun for the morning :)
I gathered ideas for future events like these.. Cookies on a stick!
For all those wine-drinking parents, a pirate ship made with felt, sticks, and corks
And little birdie pencils
Here's Eland making a purchase from Wagheed and his mom
Marshmallows on a stick!
Clearly a wise investment
Sold out, baby!
