...KIDS' KITCHEN... National Lemonade Day Popsicles!!

Nothing says "summertime" like basking in the sun with an ice cold lemonade and drifting off with the clouds in dreamy thoughts..... And with National Lemonade Day being this weekend, June 7th, what better Kids' Kitchen recipe to share than a simple, but delicious, Lemonade popsicle?! (because nothing says "childhood" like drippy, sticky popsicles on a sunny day, right?!)

Get your little budding entrepreneurs busy in the kitchen for about 30 minutes and they'll have the best Lemonade Stand in the city! (Add an adorable Apron as a fitting uniform, and they'll sell out before you can yell "Popsicles For Sale"!!)

With 2 simple ingredients, and an inexpensive popsicle mold, you can be pleased knowing that their new favorite summer dessert won't break the bank, consume copious amounts of time, or be full of junk. But warning--they go quickly! Maybe you should get a couple popsicle molds to stock the freezer up...

{DIY Strawberry Lemonade Popsicles}

  • Children's Apron (not only for making the popsicles-but it's very helpful in catching those melting drips too!)
  • Popsicle Mold (we got this cute child-sized pink & yellow set of 6 at Ikea for $1.99, but I've seen them everywhere-grocery stores, Target, Walmart...)

  • 1 Can Lemonade Concentrate
  • ~1 Cup Fresh Strawberries
  1. Cut strawberries in large chunks & place in medium bowl.
  2. KID'S JOB: Mash strawberries into a chunky, juicy pulp 
  3. KIDS JOB: Make the Lemonade in a pourable pitcher (they do love pouring & stirring, don't they?) and pour in the strawberries--juice and all
  4. Pour the mixture into each mold, filling about 3/4 full
  5. KIDS JOB: Slide in the sticks and put it all in the freezer! Now the hardest Kids Job: wait ~6 hours for full-thickness freezing.
  6. ENJOY out in the sunshine!!!
