At Levi’s school they have a tradition of having “Market Day” a few times each year.  Basically, the kids bring in things they want to sell to the other kids and they are encouraged to make items not buy them.  Each kid gets an envelope of Island School money and sets up their own store, sets the price for their items and sells away.  Levi decided to make 10 paper airplanes to sell at his table and sold them for $1 each.  He sold them all and said “The kids love these things, they are really flying out of here”  We each came home with many treasures (the grown ups get money to buy things as well).  I got a great ITunes mix cd, a caramel apple, a brownie, chestnuts to plant, a Bionicle magazine, Magic Treehouse Book and a couple of action figures for each boy. 
Hooray for Island School and Market Day!
