=Do Anytime Activities=

During trips in the car, let your child know how far you will be traveling and the approximate speed you’ll be moving at. Ask your child to estimate about how long it will take to get to your destination.

When grocery shopping, ask your child to help you find the “best buy” by comparing the cost per unit (ounce, gram, each) of different package sizes. For example, compare the cost of a family-size box of cereal with the cost of a regular-size box.
