An Unexpected Field Trip

Posted by singlemom

Last week, while running errands, I took my nephew to Acme Pizza in Old Town. The owner was there, working the cash register. After we made our order, my nephew began a conversation with the owner, which led to us being able to see how our pizza was made, as well as getting a little tour of the place.

We had a great time, and it is an experience that my nephew will never likely forget. He is 11, and I am homeschooling him while his mother finishes her own schooling. He is staying with us for a bit as well.

Moral: Let your children start up conversations with business owners. Let them ask questions. You never know when you may get a free field trip out of it.
