Was just playing it on my iPhone this weekend, actually. The game stands the test of time.

Honestly, I’d happily pay $1 for fresh-squeezed than .25 or .50 for powder. But I might be in the minority.

When we were kids I seem to recall mixing everything outside, so the kitchen didn’t get messy. But I think we were a little older (like 10?) so had greater dexterity and focus (and understanding that making a mess made the whole thing less pleasant and would not help sales). Honestly don’t remember if Mom pre-cut the lemons for us or not. I guess she probably did.

Didn’t mean to start a lemonade war!

FYI, as of now… my “capitalist pig daughter” and her friends do have a small streak of philanthropy. They will be donating half their cash at the end of the summer to Animal Action Rescue.

BTW, they are willing to offer franchise opportunities to anyone interested – for a fee of course.

Playborhood is a great website. If you have kids and haven’t checked it out, I highly recommend it.

Also, yes… if your kids are selling lemonade… pls post here. We need to check out the competition!… just kidding.. we want to support all lemonade efforts this summer!

Hey, I knew a minister’s son that did the same thing AND distributed, er, uhm, prurient periodicals.
Are you from Florida too?
