How to control your kid in the grocery store
My son Aidan has ALOT of energy. I spend most of the time at a grocery store chasing him. The kid loves to run. He always comes back to me, but it’s always a little scary (and annoying) when he takes off down the isle. Tonight was different. I needed some groceries and headed over to the Big M in Hilton (Westside!) and Aidan grabbed this little plastic shopping cart. I’d never noticed them before. Man, did it do the trick. He stayed by my side almost the entire time. God bless the plastic shopping cart!!!!!

It’s a good idea, probably because it gives you son and other children a sense of responsibility. How cute!!

Kids love to “shop”. It’s best to let them “help” you - makes them feel grown up. I’d suggest making sure you grab one if you see them whenever Aidan is with you. Make sure you let him know that Daddy needs his help to get groceries. Wegman’s & Tops has them too, especially the larger stores. Make sure you always put at least a few items in “his” cart.
