Healthy Treat: Kiwi Popsicles

Summer, kids, popsicle season - super easy!

Summer is here and that means two things: First, the kids are home, and second, it’s popsicle season! At WOT we make this Kiwi popsicle recipe all the time with the kids, and they absolutely love it. We love it because it is only three ingredients, can be done quickly, and is a healthier alternative to store-bought frozen treats. These treats are a big win!!
