Children as well as adults are usually intrigued by the ideas of bargains. More seeds for less money is often enough to convince them to buy a larger, cheaper package. In this case, the children are savvy enough to question the value of either package. One seems overly expensive and the other too good to be true. Another common response among consumers of any age is that the more something costs, the better it must be. Implicit in this story is the question, “Which package is the best value?” This story presents a case and an opportunity for promoting the development of alert skepticism as young consumers. The story then suggests that the children can find out for themselves what differences, if any, there are between the two groups of seeds. In addition, it asks the children to decide what “better” might mean. It becomes their task to create the criteria upon which they will design their investigations and their predictions.
