I always feel so bad for the kids who have to stay at home or DC when their parents are out running errands.
My 3 year old comes shopping with me 99% of the time. She loves it. I give her a list and coupons and she helps me remember/find/pick out things. It has also helped her to get to know our community - both the people in it and the direction of where we are going. She will often ask is Walmart left or right? Are we going to the Sprouts by Old Navy or the one by Target? etc. I know it is sometimes easier to go without our kids, but I personally feel it is so important to include them in everyday activities like errands.
