Yes, it is like that. The kids bring in a good that they are willing to part with - they will not get it back unless they purchase it, so you have to make that clear. I have tables set up that are labeled with how much the item costs - 10 cents, 25 cents, etc. The children then bring in money from home to purchase their items. I have parent helpers for this. We use the money collected to either pay for an end-of-year celebration or purchase something that we need for our school. We decide as a class. The children love having a garage sale. If you have other questions, please feel free to ask! :)
