Frozen yogurt with fruit is a healthy & fun snack for kids.

Today’s after-school snack idea uses a pantry staple, Greek yogurt. Everyone loves frozen yogurt, why not turn regular yogurt into frozen yogurt served in fun shapes along with some unexpected add-ins? The perfect snack that satisfies the sweet tooth.

To make this after-school snack, gather fresh fruit, frozen fruit, honey or maple syrup, sprinkles, chocolate chips, nuts and dried fruit.

How To Make Frozen Yogurt With Fruit

Set out all the foods in child save bowls for your kids
Use paper or silicone cupcake wrappers or ice cube molds
Kids can flavor their yogurt with honey or maple syrup if desired
Stir in the toppings or layer toppings with yogurt in the molds
Add popsicle sticks to the yogurt to make them into popsicles, if desired
Let children’s creativity shine 🙂

To help contain the mess and speed up cleanup time, use a baking pan below your child’s workspace.

Let your kids decide what to put into their yogurt creations. Encourage them to try several different combinations.

A simple after-school or bedtime snack that is fun for kids to make, even better to eat.

Let the frozen yogurt sit out for 5-10 minutes before eating, to allow it to soften just a little. This makes it easier to eat. Make sure to cut into small bite-sized pieces for those younger children.
