STEP 3: Mix & Pour
Any fruit that is not already liquified needs to be done so in a blender, and this is a good point to experiment with sweetness and consistency. I've personally found that popsicles are creamier when they have a thicker consistency, so I like to pour my popsicles when they are about the consistency of a smoothie. Engage your little one by putting him in charge of the blending (from a distance of course) and the pouring into molds, so that he/she can really feel part of the action.

Enticing article, Jill! I just ordered the ice cream pop molds- my daughter LOVES ice cream, so this way she can have what looks like an ice cream cone, but with healthier fruit and veggie based ingredients!
