Little Town Grocery and Cafe Exhibit (Event Over)

This exhibit features small-scale shopping carts, fruits, vegetables and breads sorted into grocery bins, and cash registers create the context of a grocery, while at the adjacent counters, on bar stools and at tables of the café, parents and children order from menus and serve food to customers. Experiences in this exhibit facilitate social learning and parent-child interactions. Some of the items in the grocery bins, plastic sushi rolls, matzo bread, burritos and mangos, have sparked conversations between families identifying foods common to their cultures.
