-
Set the price of your lemonade by clicking the price box.
-
Set the recipe by dragging the slider. (Sweet and lemony is best, but more expensive to make!)
-
Purchase inventory needed to make the lemonade. Be sure to check the weather forecast to determine how busy you might be. (Hot and sunny days are best!)
-
Open for business and watch what happens!
Watch people as the walk by your lemonade stand. Will they stop and buy? Will they find your lemonade tasty or yucky? Will the weather be good? Have you ordered enough inventory? Is your price is too high, or too low? It’s up to you to find out!
At the end of the day, your results will be displayed, showing the number of customers served and your total sales. Now you can do it all over again for the next day.
