When Life Gives You Lemons~ Activity Tray and Sweet Treat

When life gives you lemons make lemonade!


Today was pretty warm and lemons were on sale so what a better day to make a refreshing drink

I set up our activity tray outside which was something new for us as most of our "cooking" activities are inside.

We cut 2 lemons in half and each child got to have a turn squeezing out the juice

This looks easy enough but it was a bit difficult for the younger children.

Then we added 1 cup of splenda and lots of water and ice.
Stir well and enjoy!

I don't really like lemonade but this recipe changed my mind. It was so sweet I had 2 glasses!

My crazy girl after she finished her first glass. Jada doesn't like juice so I was shocked when she drank the first glass full.

All the kids saying "Cheers!"

Oh and how cool is that picnic table? It folds up into a brief case. I bought it last night at a thrift store for $19 Score!

Thanks for looking and please see my sidebar for all the great blogs I link up to:)
