We have been blessed with some wonderful spring weather in the PNW the past few weeks and have been trying to take advantage of each and every sunny day. After reading some fun books on and playing a fun lemonade stand game with Daddy on his new phone, our little Scout kept asking to have her own lemonade stand. (Also, in the Pinkalicous: Pink Drink book, the lemonade stand earnings are used to purchase pink gumballs. This may have been a big motivation in our gals mind!)
We decided to use Janie's "store" and found an easy pour container so that Clara could serve her guests independently. She put some quarters in her cash register, did all the pouring and stirring to make the lemonade and then sat out front and waited, drank a few glasses of lemonade, ate a few crackers and waited some more.
Thank goodness for great neighbors, texting and social media! By 5:00 Clara was on her 3rd container of lemonade and had created quite a crowd that it turned into a mini Friday afternoon block party. It may have helped that mommy was spiking the adult lemonade!
Our sweetie used her earnings to buy more lemonade and it looking forward to the next opportunity to set up the stand!
