2016 Sentosa Kids Flea Market

It was an excellent learning opportunity for Pb and Rb. From this experience, Pb and Rb has learnt some skills in handling the customers, especially Pb. When a customer gave a big note when he/she has bought something, I see her trying to encourage the customer to buy some more so that she can clear her goods, and to reduce the change that she needed to return. I also see my kids having more confident in speaking to people and going around to sell their things, not just restricting to the stall. They ventured out in groups or pairs and approached friendly customers with politeness. They also learnt how to promote their merchandise and they also discovered the importance of learning Chinese coz many customers were Mandarin speakers!!!! Next year, we shall do this again!
