Fifty Ways to Make Homemade Frozen Treats for Kids this Summer

It’s hot outside! I don’t know where you live, so maybe it’s not too hot for you right now. Where we live, it’s almost 90º and incredibly humid. We are spending the better part of each afternoon at the pool, but I’m also looking for some fun ways to provide the kids with cool treats when they’ve been playing out in the court with friends.

Growing up, one thing I looked forward to all summer long was visiting my grandmother and getting treated with her homemade pudding pops. She would make chocolate pudding popsicles and peach pudding popsicles and all of us grandkids loved them!

I’m excited to make popsicles for my kids this year! These beautiful popsicle molds get 4.5 stars on Amazon and I’m ordering mine today!  These fun plastic popsicle sleeves are perfect for making popsicles when we need disposable options!I am looking for some fabulous recipes to try as soon as my new popsicle molds and sleeves arrive, so I’ve been working on rounding up some recipes from my friends. Here are twenty five recipes to get you started!
