Grocery Shopping

My daughter lately freaks out when you are grocery shopping so wants to walk and not ride in the cart. We even put her in the ones with cars and if I stop to long to look at a product she jumps out and is off running. Any ideas? Does any one elses kids do this too? And if you put her in the cart she just cries and says "come here" the whole time.

  • Yeah about 2 weeks ago he started refusing sitting in the shopping cart. When I absolutely needed to go grocery shopping I brought some oreos and milk so he would sit in the cart. Otherwise, I try and go without him.

  • DD is content with snacks so far. I would try giving her her own shopping list with pictures on it to involve her. I saw this idea on Supernanny so maybe you can find some references there.

  • I let mine walk actually. She does quite good about staying near me. I've also taught her to help "push" the cart as we walk and she thinks that's fabulous.

    It takes longer so if I'm in a hurry, I just buckle her in, give her a snack and go as quick as I can.

    It's an age thing. Sounds like all the kiddos this age hate the grocery carts these days!

    We also let her walk, two things happen she stops trying to get off and the walk tires her out. Obviously if she's walking too slow I quickly carry her and catch up with dad that might be half an aisle away. She loves running through the aisles ;
