It is almost the tail-end of summer, but we are still having some really warm days and I want to make the most of sitting outside on our deck, having dinner outside with a glass of wine and having lots of popsicles. I started making these for lil V, but he is not too fond of the icy cold feeling. If I melt it a little and hand it to him in a bowl with a spoon, he is a happy kiddo. He loves ice-creams but popsicles, not so much. Hopefully that changes soon and I am forced to make more popsicles next summer 
If your kiddo loves popsicles, then this might be worth a try!
