Shopping for toys & Adding Double Digits

We happen to have a little board book that has various shops with prices. It is wonderful addition and subtraction practice. You could use a toy catalog, a supermarket flyer or make one up yourself.

Using this sheet helps young children keep place value. Have them write the name of the item on the blank and the amount to the right. They can then add the ones and tens columns separately  as the tens are shaded. Be careful to put low numerals in the ones place if you have not covered "carrying" yet.
