15 Cool Homemade Summer Treats for Kids

Going Bananas

Another fun treat idea for the families out there with a house full of summer-lovin' kiddos, these delicious chocolate-covered frozen bananas featured on How Does She... will make them go ape!

A clever idea for jazzing up those plain-Jane bananas on your kitchen counter, these guilt-free frozen treats can easily be made by small hands and dipped in a variety of fun flavors. To get started, Mama Shelley recommends using bananas that are ripe, but not over-ripe, and to stick the popsicle stick into the bottom before placing your fruits in the freezer for an hour. For dipping and toppings Shelley says her little ones love using nuts, toffee, peanuts, coconut, and some Smucker's Magic Shell dipping chocolate. All in all, a fun summer treat that's sure to be an absolute hit with the little monkeys in your home!
