After learning how to better handle our finances we decided it was past time to teach our children the same concepts. But with little to no extra cash laying around for allowance we chose to created our own "fake economy", as my hubs likes to call it.

Make a Mini General Lee {Thoughtful Thursday}

I think every child should get to ride around in a Little Tikes car {or some version of} at some point in their childhood. How fun is it to pretend you have miniature versions of adult things. Pretend kitchen? Dress-up clothes? Car!

My in-laws gave our children a brand new cozy coupe a couple years ago. They LOVE it! In our current house, there is plenty of room to ride it indoors. They take turns riding or pushing the car around the giant loop in our home. When my little boy became old enough to drive the little tikes car around my husband had a dream of making him a special man car . . .any ideas what he had in mind?
