Every kid needs to have a lemonade stand at least once in his life. A card table with a sheet over it works well for the stand. Kids can use colored markers and a piece of poster board to make an eye-catching sign. As for the lemonade, that's simple to make too. The secret to really good lemonade is dissolving sugar in water to make a syrup to use for creating this refreshing beverage. Here's how:
Make the syrup by combining 1 c. water and 1 c. sugar in a small saucepan.
Bring the mixture to a boil and stir frequently until the sugar dissolves completely.
Once all the sugar has dissolved, pour this syrup into a glass container and store it in the refrigerator (for up to one week).
Making the Lemonade
For each pitcher of lemonade, have your kids mix one entire recipe of syrup with the juice of six lemons and four cups of cold water. Note: Be sure everything is mixed together very well.
The kids can sell their lemonade over a few ice cubes in paper cups.
Additional tip: Homemade cookies boost sales at any neighborhood lemonade stand. Buy some slice-and-bake cookie dough and fresh cookies, hot from the oven, can be ready in no time.
Happy sales!
