We ran a concession stand at the swim invitational this weekend. Three young (freshman or 8th grade girls) showed up to help. It was very quickly that we discovered that the young girls could not make change...no cash register. Not one of them knew what to do..no calculator either. The adults had to count back change. So-----I am going to make sure that my children are able to do this...(whether they like it or not).
Someday they will need to know this.
