A Grocery Store Scavenger Hunt



We're visiting my mother in Virginia right now,
 and she was determined to introduce us to her new grocery store.

This isn't just any grocery store, of course.

It was Wegmans.

However, to keep the boys busy while we shopped,
my mom prepared a grocery store scavenger hunt.




If you can't read that, here's what it says:

Naan Bread
Dragon Fruit
Duck Fat
Lamb
Crumpets
Gluten Free Cereal
Triple Cream Brie Cheese
Indian Buffet Tandoori Chicken
Fresh Wild Samon
Pomegranite
Something from 8 Different Countries

My boys had to find all these items and
take a photo of each one on their smartphone.

And it worked.
It kept them busy for a long time.

In the meantime, I discovered a plethora of new fruit:

Dragon Fruit





Horned Melon

 




Star Fruit

 


We bought one of each, and I can't wait to try them!

Have you seen anything in the grocery store you didn't recognize?
Have you ever tried the dragon fruit, the horned melon or star fruit?

Not my grocery list

I'm going to share with you my 12 yr old, Donny's, grocery list.

He wants:

1. frozen pizzas
2. fedachiny
3. swedish meet balls
4. chips for lunch
5. sweet snack surprises
6. Izzys
7. mug rootbeers


Does that cover all the food groups?
I'm thinking we need to work on nutrition...and spelling.

What do your kids like best from the grocery store?
