The Coolest little Pet Shop

WELCOME Everyone to the coolest pet shop ever. We had a friend over the other day and there was some play money laying around, it was snowing outside (in April), and 4 adorable shih-tzus.  Between all of the boys they came up with a pretty fun idea to pass the time. With a little help and guidance from me they had a math lesson and didn't even know it. (Don't tell them that though)

Which dog should they choose.

               Tristan's Petco Dog Store
Here the boys found a small variety of loveable shih-tzus
In the fantastic care of one Tristan Nuttall a fantastic and clever shop owner.
Each dog was between 50.00 and 100.00$ a pretty good bargain if you ask me. This included a leash, You can't beat that right?

Each boy picked out their favorite dog and left happy customers.

Zachary Picked Bella because his own dog
has the same name. 

Before you left his store Tristan made sure
that each dog had a leash and he wrote down
everyone's name and what dog they bought. 

Dogs on their leash, they were good sports
through the whole thing. 

OOPS she didn't want her picture taken anymore.

                                                 

WELCOME To Chase's dog Toy Store! 

Next stop on our adventure was to take our dogs to the toy store and pick out a toy for them. Chase set up his shop in the dining room he had a great display table and his toys were reasonable. With a little help from his calculator he managed to give and get the right amount of money to everyone. And I think all the dogs enjoyed their toys.

 Waiting in line to pay for his toys, while the dogs
tried to figure out why they were not leaving for a walk was quite comical for me to watch.

What a great job Chase did with exchanging money!

Look at Chase with Lucky Leo! He sat with him
on his lap the whole time. 

How much is this toy again?






WELCOME TO Zachary's Petco dog treat store

So you have your pet and you bought him/her a toy, what next but food!

Enter Zachary's dog treat store where only the finest of food is available. 

Zachary packaged all of the treats himself and set the prices.

 He is a budding 

entrepreneur mom and dad!

He allowed his customers to bring their toys and let their dogs play
and eat their treats for a while.

Here is his first customer and first dollar.

Negotiating prices and making deals, Chase drove a
hard bargain on his prices.

He was a good salesmen! He advertised this to everyone
as they came up to pay for their toys.




After all the shopping was done, no one wanted to go to Spencer's toy store.  They were too busy playing with their dogs, can you blame them? So Tristan and Spencer came up with dog training school. Tristan was the boss. When he ran out of space in his shop he rented Zachary's store in the kitchen and continued his training session.
These boys were so inventive and entertaining to watch. I am so impressed by their creativity and fun ideas.
They negotiated prices and there was no arguing or fighting. It was a pleasant and successful homeschool day in my book.

Who needs a classroom when you have good friends and creativity?

And that my friends is My life with Boys!
