When life hands you lemons... Oh, you know the rest. Children's Museum Houston is a Sweet Spot host for Lemonade Day Houston. Youth entrepreneurs will set up their lemonade stand to be judged in a Best Tasting Contest! On June 1, we invite you to return back to the museum and purchase your favorite lemonade from their stand!
Lemonade Day is a free, fun, experiential learning program that teaches youth how to start, own and operate their own business – a lemonade stand. It began right here in Houston, Texas in 2007. Since then it has grown from 2,700 kids to over 55,000 kids in Houston. The foremost objective of Lemonade Day is to empower youth to take ownership of their lives and become productive members of society – the business leaders, social advocates, volunteers, and forward-thinking citizens of tomorrow. Each child that registers receives free materials that teach them the lessons of Lemonade Day like creating budgets, setting profit-making goals, serving customers, repaying investors, and giving back to the community. Along the way, they acquire skills in goal-setting, problem-solving, and gain the self-esteem critical for future success. They keep all the money they make and are encouraged to spend some, save some and share some.
When: From 11 am to 1 pm in Front of the Museum
