From budgeting to baking, every step taught me something new.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most exciting parts was <strong>handling money and using \u201cLearning by Doing\u201d coupons<\/strong>, which helped us understand real-world transactions. Collecting and calculating coupons,\u00a0 and handing the collected amount and my earnings to the admin felt like running a real business! It required focus and quick thinking, and I realized how important accuracy and honesty are in sales.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-284\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/171\/2025\/01\/IMG-20250130-WA0084-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/171\/2025\/01\/IMG-20250130-WA0084-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/171\/2025\/01\/IMG-20250130-WA0084-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/171\/2025\/01\/IMG-20250130-WA0084.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Cooking was a <strong>science experiment in action<\/strong>! I saw butter melting into a liquid, dough rising due to trapped air, and cheese bubbling when heated. Freezing transformed liquids into solids, and I understood how <strong>temperature affects the movement of particles<\/strong> in food. Watching these changes happen before my eyes made science feel alive.<\/p>\n<p>Selling food wasn\u2019t just about making money\u2014it was about <strong>patience, planning, and customer interaction<\/strong>. I observed how experienced sellers carefully prepare their items, manage their stalls, and keep customers engaged. We had to be quick, efficient, and friendly, which helped me <strong>build confidence and communication skills<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>One of the best parts was <strong>making new friends and forming bonds<\/strong> with my teammates. We cheered each other on, shared ideas, and solved problems together. I even made some <strong>loyal customers<\/strong> who kept coming back for more!<\/p>\n<p>Looking ahead to Term 2, I plan to <strong>improve my marketing strategies<\/strong> by making our stall stand out even more with creative promotions and better presentation. This journey taught me that <strong>science, business, and teamwork create a winning recipe<\/strong>\u2014and I can\u2019t wait to see what\u2019s next!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-286\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/171\/2025\/01\/IMG-20250130-WA0085-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/171\/2025\/01\/IMG-20250130-WA0085-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/171\/2025\/01\/IMG-20250130-WA0085-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/171\/2025\/01\/IMG-20250130-WA0085.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bake It Till You Make It Science, Sales, and Sizzling Success by Muhammad Mutasim (3B) Selling doughnuts and mini pizzas&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/bake-it-till-you-make-it\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Bake It Till You Make It<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":455,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-280","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-young-bloggers","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/455"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=280"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":288,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280\/revisions\/288"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=280"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=280"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.beaconhouse.net\/424\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=280"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
