Rock Pets

For a class assignment the kids had to come up with a product to sell. They had to make it, price it and sell it at the school market. Evan decided to do Rock Pets. Robbie and him went and collected some rocks and we brought some eyes to hot glue on to them. We brought Chinese take out containers and I punched holds in the side to look like breathe holes. We put some shaved paper inside and the rock pets on top of that. Evan decided to sell them small and large. He ended up selling all of them. The kids that were buying the product were given pretend money that they had earned through the year. The teachers also had play money and they would give Evan to much money or say they needed help counting out the money so the sellers got experience making change. It was a great lesson and so much fun for the kids.
