Healthy Summer Treats!

Just because you don't want your child to eat junk food and sugary foods, does not mean that they cannot enjoy some cool frozen treats!

Here are some ideas:

Smoothies- Of course, you can make them at home and customize them to your preferences. Also, be sure if you get them at a smoothie place, tell them no sugar or no sugar water. Fruit, yogurt and ice only!
(Plus, you can make a big batch and put the leftovers into a BPA free-popsicle tray and pop them into the freezer for a quick and easy treat later!)

Frozen Yogurt- Not the sugar filled kind!! Just plain old yogurt. You can pop a stick into a container and put it into the freezer or buy some organic on-the-go yogurt tubes such as Stonyfield YoKids Squeezers

Juice popsicles- Buy some organic or no sugar added 100% fruit juice and pour into a BPA free-popsicle tray for healthy versions of the summertime favorites. Check out this unique recipe for a blended fruit popsicle!


 What are your favorite healthy summertime treats?
