    3:27 - Other kids going crazy, screaming and causing a scene while 2yo Xyla is chilling, trying to stay on budget hahahaha. Great video as usual 🤙

      True! To have a child as obedient and loving as Xyla is such a big blessing for Carissa & Michael 😍💛

    Carissa and Michael could write a parenting book at this point… From how smart, polite and gentle they’ve raised Xyla to be to the way they teach her about music! It’s been so great seeing their little family grow together and it’s only beginning 🥺

      I would honestly buy it straight away if they come to write a parenting book! Xyla at 2 is way more educated and aware of her surroundings than some adults haha

    I really love how they turned this shopping spree into an educational activity and didn’t compromise when Xyla wanted the Minnie mouse lunch bag but it was 2$ over budget so she had to put another item back on the shelf 😌
    Some parents would’ve just given in and been like “fine, we can get it 🙄” but it wouldn’t have taught her the lesson they wanted her to take away from it! You’re fantastic parents. Truly.

    as a preschool teacher of 4 years and my students are around 1.5 to 3 years old, i swear Xyla freakin amazes me. Good job mom and dad!!! It's such a joy to watch your family and to see how Xyla interacts with the world around her :)

    as someone who’s never been to the US, I’ll probably never get used to taxes not being included in those displayed prices
    and I feel like I mention it every time, but I’m so in awe with all of you. she’s so smart and expressive. her choice of words, her sentences just baffle me every single time. y’all are doing so great raising her. I can only hope to be somewhat the parent you both are. much love from Germany 💜

  • @harmoniaSINGS05
    @harmoniaSINGS05 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This is a such a cute activity for the child. Cuz Xyla was so careful on what and how she wanted to spend her $30. Rather than buy things for her. You guys showed the value of money and how to stay on budget. She'll remember and cherish her purchases better.

    You guys are doing such a great job with Xyla. She is very well spoken, polite, and smart. This is such a great lesson at a young age. Many parents simply say “no” without any explanation to why (which is most likely due to price). Or they’ll spoil their kids with toys and gadgets they’ll just get tired of them too quickly. With Xyla purchasing these with her own money, she can learn and understand the value of what she’s bought and appreciate her purchases more, and hopefully longer. There are adults who are barely starting to understand the concept of budgeting now. Great job at introducing this important lesson at such a young age. Much love from so.cal. 💕
