It’s officially summer! YAY!

Except that I really don’t like the heat. It makes me cranky and the temperature fluctuation going indoors and outdoors typically leaves me breaking out in hives. But enough about my weirdness. I’ve noticed that Skibbles also gets irritable if she’s too hot.

Obviously, as a mom, I want to do my best to keep them happy, which in the summer time means plenty of snacks that are cooling and refreshing. But also, I need them to be healthy. Most store-bought summer treats are loaded with refined sugars and dyes, and so my goal this summer is to come up with a combination of various healthy alternatives.

I enabled my Mini Chef to help make these delicious Blueberry Kiwi Lemonade ice pops are after a hot summer day, we all devoured them. With just 4 ingredients (one being water), they are super healthy and very cost efficient as well. It’s a win-win for everyone.

Skibbles loved helping me make these and there really wasn’t much that she couldn’t do on her own. We work great as a team though and she always asks to do it together, so I happily oblige.

Just a little random fact: July is National Blueberry Month – so be on the lookout for these nutrient dense beauties on sale soon!
