Makenzie is a spunky Rutherford County three-year-old who loves Bluey and JJ, plus singing and "directing" music, said those close to her. She loves to play. So when she arrived at the Kidsenses InterACTIVE Children's Museum in Rutherfordton recently, she immediately began grocery shopping, a favorite among many children. Choosing veggies, steaks, milk and other things off the shelves, Makenzie placed them in a cart and rolled them to the check-out line.
