They set up a lemonade stand in Eaglehawk, catching the attention of many shoppers in the area.
The children’s grandmother Colleen Hunter said operating the pop-up stand would teach them how to manage money.
“Instead of sitting in front of the television they can make crafts and do things themselves,” Mrs Hunter said.
On offer at their stand was Canadian iced tea, cordial, cookies, lavender bags, handmade cards, bookmarks and clothes for dolls.
“Whatever they make, they must pay for all the ingredients,” Mrs Hunter said.
The children operate their pop-up drinks and craft stall at least twice a year.
For the occasion they each dressed up in their favourite costume.
Sienna Shead dressed up as Cinderalla, Rowan Shead as a knight, Annabelle Marlow as Belle from the Beauty and the Beast and Luke Marlow as Peter Pan.
