The Lemonade Stand.
Is there anything as fun? We have such generous neighbors, and the kids are always very excited when they receive a nice tip. Usually, just the two boys sell lemonade, but the girls (my daughter and niece) had just made cookies, so they decided to pool their resources.
These resourceful children have sold more than just lemonade and cookies. In fact, on the way back from the grocery store run to buy the lemonade and cups, the boys were reminiscing about the time they sold "collections." These were such treasures as a bucket of rocks (which someone actually bought), a group of leaves, several acorns -- anything they could find in the backyard. I think the boys were about 6 or 7 when they had their "collections" sale.
These two boys have been friends since we moved in here, 9 years ago, when both of them were almost 4 years old. Such sweet memories.
