Homemade Popsicles Your Kids will Love!
It is hot. Hot. HOT! here in Michigan right now and we are all about the popsicles right now. What’s better than a tasty treat that helps cool you down at the same time? Store bought popsicles can be filled with sugar and yucky ingredients, so we love making our own at home. Since everything we make is shared with our toddlers, we make sure the popsicle recipes are not only flavorful and delicious, but low in sugar too! We always look for options that are sugar free or only use natural sugars like honey or maple syrup. Today, we’re sharing some of our favorite Homemade Popsicle recipes that you will feel good giving to your child…or eating yourself!

Homemade popsicles are super easy to make. Aside from the recipe ingredients, just make sure you have a few other items on hand.
Popsicle Mold - Silicone molds like this one make it a lot easier to get your popsicles out once they are set
Popsicle Sticks - These food grade ones are perfect for little or big hands to hold.
Two in One - Alternatively, molds like this one include the holders, so you don’t need to worry about having sticks on hand!
Blender or Food Processor - this will make it way easier to combine ingredients for a smooth popsicle texture
Now, you’re ready to make some homemade popsicles for kids! Which one are you going to try first?
Made with 6 different fruits, these Rainbow Fruit Pops are fun to look at and to eat!
A simple 2 ingredient popsicle, these Honeydew Popsicles have blueberries throughout, making a nice surprise when you bite into it. There is an option to add maple syrup for a slightly sweeter taste, but we don’t think it needs it!
Combining two of my favorite fruits, these Roasted Peach and Cherry Coconut Popsicles are basically summer in a nice cold treat.
These BRIGHT popsicles will grab everyone’s attention. Made with strawberries and pineapple too, these Dragon Fruit popsicles will be a hit.
If you know any coconut lovers, these Coconut Popsicles are for them! Coconut milk and coconut sugar combine for a great flavor.
Perfect for all summer long, these Firecracker Popsicles are fun and festive! Made with just vanilla yogurt, strawberries, blueberries & some lemon juice - these will be a fast favorite.
These healthier-for-you Vegan Fudgesicles are made with coconut milk and maple syrup for a rich and creamy flavor.
These Creamy Peach Popsicles do call for honey, so while they are delicious, make sure you are only sharing them with kiddos over 12 months.
We love these Coconut Lime Popsicles because they sneak in some healthy fats from coconut milk and avocado, without losing any of the taste!
What is summer without some watermelon? These Watermelon Popsicles use the natural sweetness of watermelon to make the perfect treat for a hot day!
The primary flavors of peach and strawberry are awesome in this popsicle recipe, but what we truly love is the addition of bananas! These help make sure a nice creamy base for the popsicle.
These Orange Creamsicle Pops are the perfect summer treat! They are super creamy and bursting with citrusy flavor from fresh oranges. They'll keep you cool and hydrated all season long!
