I am BY NO MEANS a mom that is a stickler on health food, but for some reason, popsicles drive me nuts! I always feel like I am just handing my kids a cup of sugar. I have been looking online for ways to make enticing cool treats for summer that won't give my kids a sugar high. We always used to put our grapes in the freezer growing up, so when I saw this from Make and Take, I couldn't wait to get some made. Isaac loves eating them and I don't feel as bad about giving them to him. You could really do this with any fruit and it would be great. I have also used orange juice in my popsicle molds and Isaac doesn't notice a difference. Another great dessert is freezing bananas, sprinking them with cinnamon and topping them with cool whip. A great treat and pretty healthy! Enjoy!

Mmmm...yummy! Orange juice popsicles and frozen bananas...brings back memories. We just made the popsicles this week...Drew loves them!
oh, I will have to try this - thanks! I understand about popsicles, I feel the same way. I have the molds and puree strawberry yogurt and freeze it in the molds. Works great too!
