Our I Can Go to the Grocery Store is the perfect social story to guide children through this everyday experience in a simple, reassuring, and fun way! This engaging social story helps kids learn what to expect from the moment they start planning their grocery list all the way to helping carry the groceries home and putting them away.


In "I Can Go to the Grocery Store," children will learn all the essential steps for a successful shopping trip. The story begins by teaching kids how to look at store ads and coupons to plan ahead, make a grocery list, and prepare for the trip. It emphasizes safety in the parking lot, like walking carefully and staying close to an adult. Inside the store, kids will find items on their list, avoid putting extra things in the cart, and participate by helping put groceries on the conveyor belt at checkout. The story also covers using coupons, whether with a cashier or at self-checkout. Finally, the story encourages children to help carry light bags into the house and assist with putting groceries away, making them feel helpful and responsible.


This social story is perfect for children who benefit from understanding new experiences in a structured, step-by-step way, making it ideal for those who may feel anxious or overwhelmed by grocery shopping. It’s especially helpful for families who want to involve their kids in daily routines and teach them responsibility. Additionally, "I Can Go to the Grocery Store" is a valuable tool for educators and therapists working with children who have autism, anxiety, or sensory sensitivities, providing positive behavior support in a familiar, real-world setting.


Children often thrive when they know what to expect, especially during potentially overwhelming activities like grocery shopping. "I Can Go to the Grocery Store" simplifies the experience into easy-to-understand steps, building confidence and independence in your child.


This story is full of bright, positive language and practical examples, helping kids engage with the process in a fun and memorable way. Whether you’re a parent or a teacher, this social story will make grocery trips smoother and more enjoyable for everyone involved!
