Connor Wilson did not waste any time to compare prices or read the labels while grocery shopping Tuesday afternoon. Connor, 3, of Sedalia, just had fun steering his own cart while he tossed healthy food items in it during the Pettis County Health Center’s Healthy Kids Carnival.
“It has all kinds of stuff,” Connor said of the pretend grocery store.
