Fun Recipes You Can Make for Your Kids This Summer Break

Summer break might be ending for most, but many schools are out due to the heat advisory. Naturally, your kids will be home most of the time, demanding new meals and snacks every few hours. Between all the personal and professional work, you need fun recipes you can easily make in the kitchen with your little ones for a memorable break that fits the schedule of a busy mama. Here are some recipes your kids will enjoy eating and making with you without fuss.

Frozen Banana Cereal Pops

Try this fun summer recipe for kids for all those hunger pangs. Simply cut the bananas, dip them in yogurt, roll them in cereals, and freeze. Voila, ready in 10 minutes. Even your kids will love to help you make these banana pops. You can prepare various versions to ensure your little ones don’t get bored of it. Instead of yogurt, you can dip the bananas in chocolate. You can swap cereals with puff rice, chocolate chips, or even sprinkles. It’s a versatile recipe that can be customized to your child’s liking.

Pretzel Rods

Summer break means a lot of indoor and outdoor activities like watching movies, picnics, camping, and so on. And every activity requires a hearty snack in between. This is why pretzel rods are your best bet. These large, chewy pretzel rods can be made in large batches, frozen, and then warmed in the microwave as needed.

Instead of making pizza the same way this summer break, tweak the toppings to make the recipe more fun. Let your kids raid the fridge and grab their favorite veggies for the rainbow pizza. Bake and slice them for your kids to snack on during their summer activities, with different toppings in every bite. Moreover, it’s a win-win for every parent as your littles get their much-needed veggies in their tummy.

Princess Toast

Simply spread the buttercream frosting in various patterns on top of the jam and decorate it with sprinkles for an uber-sweet treat. This is also a great snack idea for kids’ birthday parties. You can even use lemon curd instead of the jam. Cut the bread into different shapes to make it more tempting.

Summer is incomplete without binge-eating ice cream. However, this time, ditch the tub of ice cream from the store and surprise your kids with this fun recipe instead. This recipe requires no cooking at all! This ice cream will be a hit among your children, made with only two ingredients — heavy cream and condensed milk.

Simply blend them with lemon juice, sugar, and ice for a refreshing drink. Drink it by the pool or while watching a movie. This slushie is perfect for all age groups.
