Hey, Kids!

Summer has arrived! While you’re busy enjoying everything about summer, don’t forget to slow down and take in the beauty of nature all around you! I love to pick flowers, dig for worms and catch lightning bugs. What are some of your favorite activities? From water balloon fights to arts and crafts and visiting amusement parks, there is always something fun and exciting.

After playing outside in the summer I like to enjoy a cold drink or treat. Popsicles are one of my favorite summer treats. I especially love the ones I make myself. They are very simple to make. You need popsicle molds (look at dollar stores for affordable options), Sprite or lemonade, and your favorite gummy candy. I like to use gummy bears and worms!

Simply fill the popsicle molds about halfway full with your gummy candy and then pour the Sprite or lemonade on top. These delicious and fun treats take a while to freeze so I like to make them at night so they’re ready the next day.

I hope you enjoy the rest of your summer break!

Take care!
