Fun things to help your children celebrate Memorial Day….

Recently the children and I made some fun, and nutritious Frozen Banana Pops. I wanted to share the idea with you.

Frozen Banana Pops:

3 ripe bananas

1 container strawberry yogurt (or raspberry)

Red, White, and Blue Sprinkles

6 Popsicle sticks

Wax Paper (or foil will do in a pinch)

1.     Cut bananas in half (not length wise)

2.     Insert popsicle sticks into the cut end of the banana

3.     Pour yogurt onto plate, roll banana in yogurt to cover

4.     Add sprinkles

Freeze for at least 3 hours. Enjoy!!

Also here are some links to some websites where you can find fun, Memorial Day crafts as well as good info and facts, to share with your children.
