Feel Better Popsicles

Royce was up all night with a fever, coughing and feeling really yucky.   We went to the doctor and thankfully he doesn't have the flu or an ear infection, just a bug.  On the way home from the doctor he asked if we could make some popsicles and I thought that was a great idea.   He didn't want anything fancy, just oj popsicles.

Here's what we did:

*Place a slice of banana on the bottom of your Sage Spoonfuls jar or whatever jar, cup or mold you wish to use.

*Place a wooden popsicle stick in the middle of the banana slice.  This will keep the stick in place.

*Pour organic orange juice into the cup, jar or mold and let freeze for 2-4 hours.

*Once frozen, run the mold under hot water for a few seconds to release the popsicle and enjoy!

The coolness of the popsicle felt really good on his throat and also made him feel better because he felt so hot.  I was happy, because he got an extra boost of vitamin C and goodness from the oranges.  I love that something so very simple really made him feel better and put a smile on his face.

What are some of your child's favorite things when he or she isn't feeling well?
