If you've grown up in the US, odds are you probably did. Most kids do sometime in their childhood. I've had lemonade stands with my brother and neighbors many times. :) N sometimes you even get a good amount of money earned because often nice people will end up giving you $5. And sometimes each of us would get up to $6/7 or so. I personally wouldn't have done it, if it weren't for my brother and neighbors cuz I am too shy about that stuff. But especially my brother is a mini-salesman and he loves those kind of things. But, I always had tons of fun having them in the summer. How about you? Have you ever had a lemonade stand as a kid? What was the most you've ever made?

I had to market against the lemonade stands in my neighborhood so I would climb nearby cherry trees and take the cherries to an old card table and sell them. I did pretty well with that table, even though many of my customers felt bad for this poor kid who kept skinning his knees climbing cherry trees. It was a great experience... I recommend it.

I like those lemonade and buttermilk sold by vendors on the pavements/streets!!!. I used to be a with a old man who used to sell spiced butter milk, under a huge tree, in a earthern pot during summer holidays.

Never had one of those myself to be honest, but I am sure it was a fun thing to do!

I did this when I was a child. I thought I would just make tons of money. I think I drank more of my profits than I sold. What can I say? I was just a kid.

Wow, I thought that lemonade stands were a thing that only happened in american movies Funny to know that they're real. I admit that I feel curious and I would like to see one in real life at least once . Of course, I would like to try the lemonade done in those stands too

I think I loved that lemonade stand but I only played that in games w/c is more fun. I played a good strategy in w/c I attract more passerby or customer. It is good for you to earn money while you are still kids. I think lemonade stand have a future as you upgrade it to someone new or a variety to choose.
