Lemonade stand

Lemonade stand

A lemonade stand is a business that is commonly owned and operated by a child or children, to sell lemonade. They are usually made out of plywood or cardboard boxes with a paper sign on front advertising the lemonade stand. Generally, the price charged for the lemonade is between 10 and 50 cents, probably to just keep it simple. They are most commonly seen in the suburbs in the United States. Lemonade stands are common in the summer time because of the hot temperatures that make people thirsty.

Lemonade stands in popular culture

* Angelica Pickles had a lemonade stand on the show "Rugrats". This lemonade stand, however, featured extra things like a "drive thru" window.
* The computer game Lemonade Tycoon revolves around being a child selling lemonade during the summer and trying to make revenue. The game was made by Hexacto in 2003. A similar game, "Lemonade Stand", was produced for the Minnesota Educational Computing Consortium in 1973 and later popularized on the Apple II platform in 1979.
* In the "Peanuts" cartoon strip, the character Lucy runs a "psychiatric help" booth which parodies the lemonade stand.
