Every year American Express has a Family Fun Day where the building is opened to families of employees, with activities and food. This years Family Fun Day was a couple of weeks ago and we took the opportunity as our family adventure. They had bounce houses, a dunk tank, face painting, and lots of other games. They served us lunch as well as free popcorn, snow cones, and cotton candy. My kids favorite part was the kids market place. Each child was given a career with a salary. Then they had to go around and purchase items at different levels. For example, they had to decide if they could afford a house, an apartment, or a studio apartment. They also had to purchase a car, pet, clothes, food plan, and any extras that they might want or need. If they had any money left to deposit in the bank, they got a reward. They love it and it helps us teach them about making smart money decisions. We had a great time!
