What are some frozen or summer treats your LO enjoys? The weather has really warmed up and I want to have some cool treats on hand for the girls!
-
nothing fancy over here - freeze pops!
-
I freeze juice or yogurt in the Zoku mini pop.. They are the perfect size!
-
We make our own pudding pops, my son loves them.
-
@looch: ohh, just regular pudding in a popsicle mold?
-
@Mamaof2: yep!
-
My mil freezes plain Greek yogurt with cut up fruit to make Popsicles and all her grandkids love them.
-
Lemon ice, and I make a lot of Popsicles in the summer! Just leftover smoothies.
I also want to get the ice cream attachment for the KA.
My girls also love icees! -
We go out for ice cream once a week. I don't generally keep frozen treats on hand, but I'm starting to think about getting a Popsicle mold.
-
@lamariniere: they're aweeeesome
-
The mini ice cream cones from Trader Joes are the perfect size for a frozen treat! Or mini drumsticks. We were gifted a Zoku but I have yet to use it (just getting all fruit Popsicles from the store is just too convenient!)
I also just love to freeze grapes and snack on those in the summer. LO loves them too

I was just thinking about asking this question today because I wanted to eat an ice cream sandwich and knew I'd have to share with my kids! We made Popsicles the other day which were just vanilla yogurt mixed with berries, and they really enjoyed those. They also love blueberries covered in yogurt and frozen. I haven't made those in a while, though. I need to make another batch to have on hand. I want to introduce them to freezer pops, but I don't know if they are too young at 2. They don't get a lot of sugar so they'd probably get so hyper!
-
I buy one of those small Odwalla smoothies and mix it with yogurt or water. Lots of different flavors and the kids love them. Much cheaper and healthier than store bought pops.
-
Jello in a popsicle mold doesn't drip as much. We also like slices of watermelon frozen on sticks.
-
@MrsSRS: what's the consistency of watermelon like when frozen??
-
@regberadaisy: like a popsicle! Hard, a little pulpy.
-
We have Zoku slush makers and turn pretty much any drink (apple juice, ovaltine, anything) into slushes. We also make different kinds of popsicles or just buy them.
-
@Charm54: Do you like the Zoku? Would you recommend it? I want one now!
-
@erinbaderin: 100%! They are so easy to pop out unlike a traditional Popsicle maker.
I liked it so much I bought myself the quick set machine ... It's awesome too!
