Plan, price, and run a real garage sale using maths and money skills. Kids sort items, research prices, create price tags, make change, and track earnings. Addition, subtraction, multiplication, percentages, and money handling, all in one hands-on project.
Ages 6–14 · Project guide · 3 skill levels
Your child runs an actual garage sale: prices the stock, handles the money, negotiates with customers and works out at the end whether they made anything. Profit stops being a definition when it is their own float and their own takings.
When maths lives in real money, real measurements, and real decisions, it stops being a worksheet and becomes a tool. A kid who uses it to get something they actually want remembers it for life, and they did it with you. That is the moment "I taught my kid something real" starts to feel possible.
