Sophie's Lemonade Stand + Free Lemonade Banner Printable


Our big girl had her first lemonade stand
this weekend during our Garage Sale!
It was sooooo fun seeing her get into it.
She made bank.
She would see potential customers in our yard and walk right
up to them and ask if they wanted some lemonade.."it's 50 cents!"..
and it was hilarious seeing how barely anyone could say no to her. 
and the ones who did made a face like I feel like I am so cruel..
She took the first rejection sad..
but I got her to say "thanks anyways!" to the ones who said no.
One lady payed 3 bucks for a cup...
some payed and didn't even take some!
She was cranking out the lemonade.. we had to make 2 more pitchers and keep adding ice!
Sophie was loving it...and I was loving watching her have fun.
She was charming the crowd.. ;)

Lemonade Stand Supplies:
Ikea Chalkboard
A old school desk we found and I had spray painted pink. (was in playroom)
Plastic Lemonade Pitcher from Walmart 
(husband put ice in container instead of center piece.. that's why there is tape holding it down....lovely right? ;)
Blue Colander (TJMAXX) full of lemons (or balls to sienna)
Lemonade Banner I made/printed/stapled to ribbon/taped to desk

If you would like to use this lemonade banner printable
for your kid's next lemonade stand..
I'll have it up for a limited time..and then I'll be selling it for $5 in my etsy shop.
Lemonade Banner Printable- Two letters per page. 4 pages.
(print full size or reduce in printer settings)
Sample:
Sophie got the hang of filling up the cups.
Sienna on the other hand...I kept looking over to
find her turning the spicket on and walking away.... ;)
Sienna being a big helper and Ben.
(during one of the few slow moments at the garage sale.)
Sienna was so funny..she saw sophia filling up the cups over and over and went to try it.
she filled it up an inch and gave it to the lady haha. She was very proud of herself.
She spent most of the morning throwing a lemon around..and moving the "50 cent -stuffed animals on the blanket " off the blanket.... ;)


We let sophia pick out something from the neighbors
garage sale with some of her lemonade stand earnings.
They are in love with bubbles right now....so this was a hit!

Hope you had a wonderful Weekend!
