I spotted a kid’s grocery cart recently at Costco and snapped it up. It is unusually well-made, with all the main parts made out of metal rather than plastic. It has a collapsible seat, just like a real shopping cart, and high-quality wheels with ball bearings. And, to make it even cooler, it came with 30 miniature food items, including cans, boxes, and bottles with realistic-looking labels (without any real-life brand names, which I appreciate). It was a steal at $28.<\/p>\n

Ruby spent the evening playing with her new pretend grocery store, taking items off the shelf, putting them in the cart, taking them out, putting them in the shopping bag, etc. All of her stuffed animals got a turn to ride in the seat of the cart.<\/p>\n
