The son is using chunking, which involves grouping information into smaller, more manageable units based on similarities or categories. In this case, he is grouping the groceries by food group. Peg word and method of loci involve associating new information with pre-existing information (e.g. associating numbers with words or remembering information by visualizing it in a familiar location), while enrichment is not a recognized memory strategy.
