Phil saw the kids sitting on the wall while he was in the office today and thought they were primed for their first lemonade stand. We didn't have lemons, but I had limes and watermelon. So they wrote up the signs while I got to squeezing. 50 cents for fresh, all natural lime-ade and 25 cents per watermelon slice.
They were very convincing salespeople! Went knocking on doors to drum up business and gave out some free samples that paid for themselves with repeat business. We have some very generous neighbors as well. Total money in the cash box: $19.10. After paying out me and Kelly for raw materials, Connor and Bridget took home $6 and Pip and Viv took home their own $6. Not too bad!
I was proud of my littles, but Pip was disappointed that all that work was not enough to by the $45 Razor Scooter he wants!!
