My daughter is a “Daisy” which means she is a Kindergartener who is a Girl Scout, so we had our first experience of standing outside grocery stores, selling Girl Scout cookies. It was, surprisingly, a much nicer experience than I expected: people went out of their way to talk to the girls, and Kavya enjoyed holding up a poster, restocking cookies, and ver occasionally, asking if anyone wanted to buy cookies. She was amazed that people paid $4 pennies for a box of cookies- “400 pennies!”, as she said.
That’s my 3-year old, Nishant buying a pack from her. The trouble with “selling” girl scout cookies, is that you end up buying too many yourself!
For most of the time we hung around ( and it was a long time) Nishant was busy with the iphone.
The little ones tug at your heart strings when they are selling cookies. You are a nice mom to support her.
Wonderful post, I especially like that last one! Hmmm…thin mint coooookiiiiess!!
