I didnt want to force the kiddos into this though.
Their eyes lit up with excitement-it was an absolute YES!
They were SO excited and couldnt wait.

Witnessing their excitement was incredibly infectious.
So I decided to try and make them a funky DIY lemonade stand to add to their excitement.
I hopped on Pinterest and Google Images to get some ideas on how to make one easily and cheaply.
It took 2 coats to get the colors to pop.
Mine was roughly 29 x 11 (using the Home Depot creates linked above).
Saves the hassle to rent /use your own saw.
To prop up the sign I used 1/2 inch dowels and I got a bit fancy here.
The length was a perfect fit between the dowels , I just had to cut it width wise.
I then painted the surface with chalkboard paint (2 coats) and let it try overnight.
Once the paint was dried and cured I used chalk to draw on the chalkboard sign.
We finished it off with some great lemony decorations made by my daughter and some pom poms.
You could also try using string or twine for a swankier look.
All Done!
A job well done kiddos!
EXTRA: Im including free DIY lemonade stand printable signs my daughter and I designed for the event.
