For the boys

We got toy cash registers for our grandsons recently, complete with toy money and (gasp) credit cards. I'm pretty sure the Fisher Price cash register we got for our daughters didn't have a slot for swiping a credit card, but for modern day kids it is what it is. So on a recent play date, I realized  play wallets might be a good addition.

"I'll make you one," I told G. Then spotted a way-cooler Spiderman wallet at Target and thought, "he'll like this better than anything I could make."

Wrong!

When we were on FaceTime G asked if I had made his wallet yet. "Something better," I said as I focused on the new wallet.

"Oh, thanks" G said and walked away.

"I don't think he liked it as much as something you would have made," Meg speculated.

Well.

Lesson learned. And since there are three grandsons, there are now three wallets made from thrifted linen ...

complete with Velcro pockets for coins ...

room for real dollar bills ...

and pockets for credit cards ...

I'm thinking they may also come in handy in the not-too-distant future as the perfect place to facilitate Tooth Fairy transactions ... imagine that!
