[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When my child was a toddler, he was excited for "ice popsicles" (aka ice cubes) and "broccoli popsicles" (aka frozen broccoli) for dessert. That wouldn't work past age 2 or 3.[/quote] My kids (1 and 3) are currently enjoying spinach popsicles (they also have yogurt, banana, and honey in them) for snack and considering it a high treat. I am sure it will stop working soon enough (the 3yo will always choose candy for fruit given the choice these days and that was not true last year) but I’m going to milk it as long as I can. 😆 I don’t given them plain frozen veg for dessert but I have it as an opinion for dinner (they get to choose if they want “hot peas” (cooked) or cold peas (still frozen)) and most of the time they go for frozen and eat the whole helping. If I inflict cooked vegetables they eat way less.[/quote]
