Nothing screams summer like a delicious popsicle! I grew up eating so many with my siblings. We used to look forward to seeing that yellow truck from Schwan’s food delivery service pull up to my grandmother’s house. They had the best popsicles besides the ice cream truck. Your kids will love making this colorful cardboard popsicle craft to celebrate summer.
