Chugg Chillers Winter Stand

Every year we help the kids earn some money so they can buy Chrismtas Presents for each other.  We like them to earn the money so they really feel like they are giving.  This year Hanna and Jake came up with this idea to have a Winter Stand and sell hot chocolate and shakes to the neighborhood kids.  Hanna made shakes in the kitchen while Jake took orders.  Carter was in charge of the money and Josh ran back and forth helping us stay organized.


 We made little invites to hand out at the bus stop that advertised Peppermint, Oreo shakes for $1.00 and gourmet Hot Chocolate for .50 cents.  We had a lot of customers!!  Hanna and I were going crazy in the kitchen trying to get the shakes made!

 In the end it was a success....they made $38 dollars.  I was proud of them!!  They all worked really hard and we had a rather large mess to clean up in the end that they all helped with.  Fun memories!!
