When the summer sun is blazing and your little ones are begging for something cold, sweet, and satisfying, popsicles are a go-to treat. But what if you could make snack time both fun and nourishing?

These 4 easy, kid-approved popsicle recipes are made with real fruit and a “sneaky” boost of superseeds—think omega-3s, fiber, protein, and more. They’re the perfect way to keep your kids cool and fueled for all their summer adventures. Whether it’s for backyard hangs, post-camp snack time, or a better-for-you dessert, these pops will be on repeat all season long.

Let’s dive into the popsicle recipes your kids (and their growing bodies) will thank you for!

Why Superseeds in Popsicles?

Why not?! We’re all about real-food nutrition that supports growing bodies—without the power struggles. Our blends are packed with superseeds like flax, chia and hemp hearts, each offering powerhouse benefits:

  • Omega-3s for brain development

  • Fiber for healthy digestion

  • Plant-based protein for strong muscles

  • Zinc, iron, and magnesium for immune health and energy

Blending these nutrients into foods kids already love—like popsicles—is a simple, delicious way to boost their daily nutrition without the battle.


Popsicle Base Tips: How to Build a Nutritious Pop

Before we get into the specific recipes, here are a few quick tips for building better popsicles:

  • Fruit is the foundation – Use ripe bananas, mangoes, strawberries, or blueberries for natural sweetness.

  • Add something creamy – Coconut milk or Greek yogurt makes your pops creamy and satisfying.

  • Sweeten smart – Skip refined sugar and opt for honey, maple syrup, or dates if needed.

  • Mix in Tiny Sprouts Boosters – A scoop of any of our boosters adds real food nutrition in every bite.

Let’s get blending!

1. Strawberry Chia Popsicles

  • 4 cups sweet, ripe strawberries and/or raspberries
  • 2 tbsp Tiny Sprouts Milled Chia Seed Booster
  • 1-2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional and omit for babies under 24M)

Pro Tip: Add a few whole berries into the mold before pouring for a fun texture surprise.

2. Blueberry Popsicles

  • 1 cup sweet, wild blueberries
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp Tiny Sprouts Hemp Heart Booster
  • 1-2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional and omit for babies under 24M)

Why Kids Love It: Creamy like ice cream but packed with protein, this one’s a parent win too.

3. Mango Smoothie Pops

  • 2 cups cubed mango
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt or kefir
  • 2 tbsp Tiny Sprouts Hemp Heart Booster
  • 1-2 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional and omit for babies under 24M)

4. Chocolate Power Pops

  • 1 avocado
  • 3 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsp Tiny Sprouts Milled Flaxseed Booster
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt or kefir
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional and omit for babies under 24M)

Why It Works: This pop delivers healthy fats, plant protein, and just enough chocolatey richness to feel indulgent—without the crash.

📌 Pro Parent Tip: Let your kids help pour the mixture into the molds—it's a great sensory activity that builds independence and encourages trying new flavors.
