Program Description

Event Details

Get ready to beat the heat with your own homemade treats! In this fun and interactive class, students will learn how to make popsicle mixtures using fresh ingredients, then design their own custom popsicle to take home and freeze.

We’ll also create a delicious fruit salad while learning basic kitchen skills like mixing, measuring, and combining flavors.

This class encourages creativity, independence, and a love for fresh, healthy foods—all while having a blast! This class is for students enterting grades K-2 in Fall 2026.

Due to the nature of this program, and out of respect for instructors and fellow patrons, we are not able to accommodate anyone who arrives more than 10 minutes after the scheduled start of the program. Unless prior arrangements have been made with the instructor, latecomers will not be allowed into the program. Thank you for your understanding and help in making programs at the Library successful and fun for everyone!

Please note: Allergy substitutions are not available at this time.  

 

This class will be conducted by Nita, a local mom with a deep passion for sharing the joy of wholesome, nutritious recipes with the community. Her love for cooking stems from a desire to make healthy eating accessible and fun for all ages.
