Wacky Watermelon Pops
We just can’t get enough watermelon around our house this summer! Partly because it is so delicious and partly because it is so nutritious, and because my kids love popsicles, and their mom doesn’t love all the added sugar and artificial dyes in them – we make a lot of our own. This is our newest recipe combing the refreshing sweet taste of watermelon, with the bright tart flavor of kiwi.
This might be the easiest recipe you ever follow. Blend watermelon. Pour into your mold and let it freeze for a bit. Blend kiwi. Pour into molds on top of the watermelon layer. We use the Zoku pop maker to make all of our popsicles. It is seriously amazing. If you haven’t tried one, I would highly suggest you do. If you think it is a bit too sour for your kids, just add a touch of honey when you blend.
And a little while later you have beautiful tasty super nutritious pops awaiting your hot little kidlets.

Mmm!! Love it! I just made a kiwi strawberry sorbet the other day and posted it but this is one i will have to try too!
Love my Zoku popsicle maker too. 🙂
I love to make our homemade watermelon popos, but making it with kiwi is such a neat idea!
Doesn’t water melon have a lot of sugar and not much else, and on the “no” list for fruit
Would love to know where you purchased your popsicle molds. Also, just wanted to let you we are linking to some of your articles on our news site: boogai.com. Your article titled “Family Bonds Fostered by Food” is in the Family Life section today and your article on Potassium will be featured tomorrow 🙂 Love your site!

Love these watermelon pop ideas and I can’t wait to try them with my kids. I recently purchased Crispy Green, these healthy, portable, freeze dried fruit snacks. My kids are obsessed and are finally eating their fruit!! YAY! I just signed up for their Facebook sweepstakes. Thought I would share Check it out on http://www.facebook.com/crispygreen because who doesn’t like free samples!
Love this idea my kids love both these fruits and we live in TN where it gets very hot in the summer. I think I am going to give them a try. Would love to have you come visit my blog @http://www.specialbirthdaypartyideas.com/
These are sooo cute and very healthy too. Kids absolutely love popsicles but they are so full of artificial ingredients, colors and flavors that you really don’t want to give them too many. This recipe is so simple because it has only a few ingredients but it’s also so healthy. Thank you so much for this great idea. Kids will definitely love this for the bright colors and the great flavor.
Yum, these will be a hit with the kids for sure! And with the adults too.
Man those look so good! Can’t wait to make and try them.
Some of the symptoms mentioned in various forums and media such as pulmonary hemorrhage and memory loss are very rare, and even if such events have been reported,
they are not supported by medical and scientific findings.
If anyone in your home or office seems to get sick primarily when they are in that building,
there is a strong possibility that mold is the cause.
It is also a good idea to take it outside to clean it with a
brush because when you take it outside, you prevent the mold from spreading inside of
your home.
Conventional materials may tend to oxidize or deteriorate when exposed to temperature.
A motor oils pour point tells you how well it handles cold temperatures
without gelling (solidifying). Safer operation – Higher
flash points, fire points, and spontaneous ignition reduces the risk
of fire and equipment loss – saving you money.
AMATUZIO had ample opportunity to witness synthetic lubricants in action. A motor oils pour point tells you how well it handles cold temperatures without gelling (solidifying).
This is why the old practice of changing straight grade oils to
a heavier viscosity in the summer and a lighter viscosity in the winter
is no longer necessary.
