Start a business! It’s time to open up a lemonade stand! Spend your starting funds wisely on supplies so you can serve the most customers and make the most money. It’s time to squeeze the day!

What Is It?

An educational, economic game where players will all build their lemonade stand, buy lemonade, and then take turns drawing customers to sell to in order to make money. When special orders are drawn, players will roll a die to compete for a sale.

Who Is It For?

  • 1 to 4 Players – The multi-player game scales well, and the day frame grows for more players, which adds more customers. I thought solo was a bit dry, and the rules were a bit vague, so I prefer the multi-player
  • Ages 5 & Up – This definitely feels geared toward a younger audience. It’s a good tool to teach kids a little bit about money, costs, and profit
  • Fans of light economic games
  • Players who don’t mind some luck

PROS

  • Aesthetics – Cute art; fun puzzle boards
  • Components – The lemonade pieces are great, and so cute! Overall nice components other than paper money, haha!
  • Turns are quick and smooth
  • Small ruleset; rules well-written and clear
  • Great teaching tool for younger audiences

CONS

  • No Insert so the box is a little messy
  • Luck of serving customers for special orders
  • No preset number of rounds – players decide when the game ends, which felt odd
  • I wish the abilities/weather were double-sided so they were easier to separate from customers

Final Thoughts

This was a cute and simple game. It’s definitely aimed primarily for younger players, so if you have little ones at home, or teach math in school, this is a great resource to help them out a little, plus it has a fun theme and nice components that everyone will love!
