Its very simple to add values to session array.
1.Add below line to the top of your script to start session.
session_start();
2.Use below examples to add values to session array.
$_SESSION['variable1'] = "Test1";
$_SESSION['variable2'] = "Test2";
3.Retrieve those session array values like below example.
//Prints whole session array by using below line
print_r($_SESSION);
//print individual values by using below examples
echo isset($_SESSION['variable1']) ? $_SESSION['variable1'] : '';
echo isset($_SESSION['variable2']) ? $_SESSION['variable2'] : '';
Please let me know if you still find any problems

add each item to an array and assign it to session variable like this
session_start();
$_SESSION['cart'] = array( ... );
so you can access each item like this
$_SESSION['cart'][0]
$_SESSION['cart'][1]
.

Try
session_start();// First of all start session
$_SESSION['arry_key_may_be_your_name']='My name';// Add values to session array
