Shivani Aunty - 3-4yrs - 7-11-07 - Diwali dhamaka !

Diwali is around and little petals have been working really hard the last two days. They made colorful cards with different crackers pasted on them made from colored stripes of paper, spirals etc and decorated with glitter. Today we set set up our little card shops, we named our card market as - 'New Card Shop' Each one of us chose a cozy spot in our room placed a mat to sit on, our shops were decorated with streamers, diyas and had our names too. The whole place had a festive look. As we arranged our cards neatly in front of our shops, the first two customers came in!
  We enjoyed showing them our cards and wanted to sell for 5 rs, but the customers wanted to buy only for 1-2 rs, some bargaining went on for a while before the first rupee was earned! And the proud owner was very excited and showed the coin around, Look what I got - MONEY !!! the customers went aroound asking about the cards, how they were made, the colors on them, shapes etc. All our shopkeepers were ambitiuos and quoted higher prices, customers were persistent in their bargaining too. Some shopkeepers were calling people to their shops and managed to sell all their cards. The entire experience was absolute FUN !!!
