More Than Just Lemonade is a sibling-run business features the talents of Kourtnee Marie, D-Aleczandria, Crissondra-Lee, LaiTon, and A’Driann—a hard-working team bringing crochet, jewelry, and refreshing beverages to life!

More Than Just Lemonade began with Kourtnee Marie’s passion for crochet. After joining a crochet club, she started making unique items for her friends, who encouraged her to sell her creations. The rest of her siblings caught the entrepreneurial spirit and decided to join in. D-Aleczandria and Crissondra-Lee contribute handmade jewelry, while LaiTon and A’Driann provide beverages—and a healthy dose of marketing genius!

Music and a sense of fun draw people into their booth. Plus, the kids quickly realized one key benefit of the Children’s Entrepreneur Market: “I can make a profit!”

Their parents helped them get started by purchasing yarn, beads, and sodas and even building custom PVC displays for their booth.

To make the most of their budget, their mom taught them to price-check and find the best deals, sourcing supplies from Amazon, Walmart, and local yarn stores. This hands-on lesson in budgeting and resourcefulness has been a key part of their success.

Like all entrepreneurs, the siblings faced hurdles along the way. Figuring out how much to charge for their products was a big challenge at first. But by paying attention to customer feedback and making adjustments during events, they’ve found price points that work.

Their approach to challenges? Keep learning and improving. “Don’t let it overwhelm you. Push through the fear,” they say.

The More Than Just Lemonade team offers these wise words to young entrepreneurs:

  • Don’t let it overwhelm you. Push through the fear.
  • Don’t get discouraged if you have a bad market. Learn from your experiences and keep adjusting.
  • This is a great way to make memories and learn important life skills as well as make some money!
