When will I learn that carrying a $1 in my purse is the key to making it through the grocery store without wanting to cry? All I have to do is make a pit stop in the produce section, buy an apple and it's at least 30 minutes of contentment for Little Man. But no, I think to myself, "It's only a couple things. We'll be quick." And do I regret it by the time there are 3 items or less in the cart...Oh YES. Someone please remind me next time I'm headed to the grocery store to make sure that $1 is in my wallet.

The next time you go to the grocery store take $1. :) Also play Backyardigans. I pick an episode and play it with Goose. Most of the time we pretend we are secret agents on a mission to get food. Yes, it causes me to chatter non-stop and sometimes duck and hide behind the cart, but it's worth the side looks and snickers that I get from other shoppers.
that kid does love his apples....apple slices and those carts with the cars attached and you can shop for like an hour....
That's a great idea for when Little Man is older. I don't think he would get it yet.
You are better than us. I grab a doughut at the bakery, break it in half and give each tot a piece. That usually gives me an hour. Apples are much more nutritious. :)
Hey, if that what works, go for it! Little man hasn't grasped the concept of donuts yet, he would just crumble it into pieces. There would be a Hansel & Gretel trail behind us through the store.
