We have a new game we play at the grocery store to keep the boys occupied. I give them a quarter, of which they have to hold in their clasped hands as they walk throughout the store. If they still have the quarter after checkout, they get to use it for the candy machines at the front of the store. This really works well for us, because it helps the boys keep their hands to themselves.
Well, Alex has some trouble keeping his hands clasped while walking. He just can't seem to hang on to that darn quarter.
But, I know we've raised our children well when Aidan, who was concerned for his brother, said the following:
"Alex, if you don't have your quarter at the end, I'll give you mine."

Wow. I think this is one of the most brilliant ideas I've ever heard. My kids are crazy about candy...this just might work for them.
