Teach the Lemonade Day lessons
We equip you with a Teacher’s Guide that includes lesson plans, a customizable program timeline, and a Best Practices Guide to help you along the way. Lessons can be completed in four, 1-hour sessions or seven, 20-30-minute sessions.
04
Encourage parents and guardians to support
Teach the lessons, then encourage parents and guardians to help their youth put the plan into action. Students work with their parent or guardian to shop for supplies, build the stand, and get all their cups in a row before July 20, 2024.
05
Cheer your students on and visit their stands
We know school’s out for summer (hooray!), but if you’re around on July 20th, why not stop by a few students’ stands and show your support? Following Lemonade Day, we’ll send you a Classroom Impact Report with your students’ results (if reported).

I met my goals. I learned A LOT. I have $20 for a toy, $60 for the Children’s Hospital, and lots to put in the bank.

I want to put up a lemonade stand every year until I earn enough money to start my own business.

I was a little scared no one would want to buy my lemonade, but I did it anyways. And I made up my own jokes to tell people.
Fern, Age 6

The hardest thing I faced was talking to people. I felt shy at the beginning, and then I learned it was better to be brave and friendly.

We thought selling lemonade would be fun, and guess what? It is! Plus, it’s cool to have our own little business.
