My granddaughter got a new bike. I asked her if it was a Christmas present, and she said she had saved her money and bought it on her own. She's been saving her money over the past summer. She wanted an $80 Barbie bike, but bought the same bike in the same model, purchased a basket, streamers, and a bell for $50 and saved $30.... Gee, I wish I would have started teaching my kids like that when they were 5 years old..!
