| 词条 | Lemonade stand |
| 释义 |
A lemonade stand is a business that is commonly owned and operated by a child or children, to sell lemonade. The concept has become iconic of youthful summertime Americana[1] to the degree that parodies and variations on the concept exist across media. The term may also be used to refer to stands that sell similar beverages like iced tea.[2] In the United States, unlicensed lemonade stands have gotten in trouble with rules about permits. The stand may be a folding table, while the archetypical version is custom-made out of plywood or cardboard boxes.[3][4] A paper sign on front advertises the lemonade stand. Educational benefitsLemonade stands are often viewed as a way for children to experience business at a young age. The ideas of profit, economic freedom, and teamwork are often attributed to traits lemonade stands can instill.[3] However, unlike a real business, they benefit from free labor and rent, and may have a lack of expenses.[3] LegalityIn some areas, lemonade stands are usually in technical violation of several laws, including operation without a business license, lack of adherence to health codes, and sometimes child labor laws.[5] Prosecutions of lemonade stand operations are extremely rare, but have been known to occur, typically to public outcry.[1] As an example, a child's lemonade stand was shut down in the town of Overton, Texas in June 2015. When the mother tried to get a permit, she was told she would be required to have her kitchen inspected.[6] In 2018, Country Time created Legal-Ade, which pays up to $300 of the legal fees for lemonade stands fined in 2017 or 2018, or for 2018 permits.[7] SimulationsThe business simulation game Lemonade Stand was produced for the Minnesota Educational Computing Consortium in 1973; it was later popularized on the Apple II in 1979.
