Something my family and I enjoy all summer long is eating watermelon. My memories of enjoying a chilled slice on a hot day go back to when I was about ten at my grandmother’s house. As a youngster I remember the joys of spitting out the seeds although today most, if not all, watermelons you find are seedless. I remember how messy yet refreshing it was to enjoy something so sweet. My husband is not a fan at all so I wasn’t sure who the kids would take after. Well the verdict is both of them enjoy watermelon.
The summer may be quickly coming to a close so we are enjoying homemade ice pops as much as we can. I know as a mom when you discover something the kids love, you look for different ways to incorporate it . My children and I enjoy fresh watermelon cut up, we drink it as juice and we also make ice pops. Below are two easy and simple recipes for our summer watermelon ice pops.
