I love the idea of this task, but I wish there was an editable option. Many of the food kits don't have the same items and I'd like to be able to insert a picture of the food items we have.

My students love this resource. It allows them to learn while they play. I planned to use this with a student of mine who was hard to engage when it came to certain skills. I knew he was really into fruits and vegetables and having him "make a purchase" with these cards and the plastic food really caught his attention. His money skills are growing!
