Don't put up a boring old lemonade stand! Make this fun DIY snow cone stand and let your budding entrepreneurs have some real fun. Now that Summer is here it's time to break out the frozen treats. My girls are always asking to sell something. Lemonade, Popsicle, cookies, but our new favorite thing is to sell snow cones. We've loved these tasty treats as a family so much that I bought a snow cone machine a couple years ago. And now we can't get enough of the frozen goodness.
First things first. You’re going to want to have access to an electrical outlet for this stand. Use of an extension cord is great but when deciding where to place your stand electricity is key. You’ll also want to find a spot that has some shade since ice has been known to melt. We placed signs out on the street telling about the snow cones for sale to drive in buyers. But honestly, most people saw the cute stand and stopped to see what was happening. Use a treat stand that fits cones for the perfect fit. This is a great place to hold these snow cones!
The other side of our stand held the supplies. Having the supplies like, Turquoise Napkins, Turquoise Polka Dot Paper Straws, Spoons, and flavored syrups right there made things move pretty quickly. It also helped keep the messes minimal.
The other side of the stand housed the snow cone machine and ice cream scoop.
Once your stand is all set up, the sell can begin. I just sat back as my little workers made snow cones for the neighborhood kids.
Now this is a fun summer activity that will keep you cool. I think this snow cone stand would be so much fun for a birthday party, or backyard BBQ. I’m up for snow cones just about anytime!
