Print-and-play pretend kit

Lemonade Stand Pretend Play

Open a pretend lemonade stand right at the kitchen table. This printable kit comes with a stand sign, a price menu, order slips, and play money—everything little shopkeepers need to practice counting, kindness, and big imaginations.

Suggested ages

Ages 4-9 · 2+ players

Setup

  • Print all three pages.
  • Cut out the order slips and play coins.
  • Prop up the sign where the stand will be.

How to play

  1. One player runs the stand; everyone else is a customer.
  2. Customers mark an order slip and pay with play coins.
  3. The shopkeeper counts the coins, checks the total, and serves the order.
  4. Swap roles so everyone gets a turn selling.

Quick variations

  • Math boost: customers overpay on purpose so the shopkeeper counts out change.
  • Big sale day: set an earnings goal, like 50¢, and count the profits together.
  • Sunny-day mode: tape the sign to a real table outside and serve water or juice.
