Making lemonade during speech sessions is such a fun, engaging activity with the potential to target a variety of speech-language goals. Even if you don't want to (or can't) make real lemonade, you can pair these activities with a lemonade-themed book such as Froggy's Lemonade Stand, a lemonade-themed art project, or a pretend play activity where students pretend to create a lemonade stand (with peers or with figurines).
