These Green Smoothie Popsicles are a favorite toddler snack all year long in our house. They’re super yummy and packed with nutrients!

Green Smoothie Popsicles

If you have a toddler who’s not a fan of smoothies, you have leftover smoothie, or just want a new way to serve up fruits and veggies smoothie, these freezer pops are a great option.

They are refreshing and easy, and are a fun snack or dessert during warmer months…or really, any day!

We’re basically turning a kid-friendly smoothie—featuring yogurt, chia seeds, and plenty of produce—into a frozen treat that toddlers will love. (Okay, I love them too!)
