This shop was selling cookies and cupcakes. If you purchased a cupcake, you got to decorate it however you wanted.
This store was selling clothing that the girls no longer wore and their prices were amazing. The dresses were super adorable too. I so wished that I could've fit into one of them!
One of the indoor food stands. I just liked it. Most of the pics are taken before Boxland even got under way. (hence the empty stands!)
Not quite sure what this business was selling. As I said, most of these shots were taken right before Boxland officially began. Plus I didn't want to take pics with the kids' faces.
This is Hollywood Blvd-minus the Hollywood sign.
This was my FAVORITE shop! It was the one and only place where I made a tangible purchase. And now for some inside shots:
I liked this booth. That's why I took a picture. Though again, this was taken before things got under way.
Popcorn, dippin' dots and something else, I can't remember what.
Here's where the businesses got to store their items (for a fee).
And here's where they had to store the food (also for a fee!).
My one and only purchase (that wasn't eaten!).
Most of my money was spent on edible items ranging from chocolate covered strawberries to tacos. The kids had a great time. A few of them are completely broke. They spent most of their money on toys. I told them to try not spend all their money so that they would have some for tomorrow (obviously they didn't listen). Hope they don't think that I'm going to be giving them any. One of mine even said that I'll just give her more money for tomorrow. I laughed when I heard that one. I told the student who overheard this that I can't wait for that girl to ask me for money so I can laugh in her face. Me, mean? Definitely. More tomorrow!


















What a neat idea! And a darn good way of showing young kids how to spend and save money wisely ;)
ReplyDeleteI would have blown all my money too. Tacos! Yum! I like the pet rock too.

That looks like a lot of fun! What a great idea to do this with the kids. Even though I can't see their faces, looks like they had a great time!
