Children often want to earn some money, but how can you keep them safely at home and still teach them how to earn? Try the old fashioned lemonade stand.


Are the kids wanting to earn some money? Why not include them in your next garage sale. No, I don't mean sell them! Let them invest and earn some money. What a great way to learn the ups and downs of running a business. Follow these easy directions to set up an old fashioned lemonade stand along with a garage sale or other event.

Of course, the child will need some supervision while shopping and setting up his stand and during the actual selling for safety's sake. Encourage him to invest well and by hard work he will be able to turn a profit . He will also learn that cleanliness, generosity and good manners pay. Fun is the main thing and what could be more fun than playing store?
