Treats! Treats for sale! 50 cents a treat.

We payed $10 at a rummage sale for an aleady made lemonade stand structure. Took it home, painted it, made a couple of signs, spent a few hours baking bars and cookies in the kitchen, borrowed a shade umbrella from a friend, and Voila!!

And, due to a conversation we had with our 4-yr-old and 6-yr-old about the flood damage to the city of Duluth, MN --specifically, the flood damage to the Duluth Zoo and its animals-- it was decided to donate the money raised from the kids' treat stand to the Duluth Zoo. We wrote this on the bottom of our sign. The kids ended up raising $50 for the zoo! Almost impossible to say "no" to those adorable faces...

Great learning experience, and fun too! Way to go kids!
