I put yoghurt into them sometimes or just apple juice. Both are popular.

i just put some watermelon ion food processor and foze that.

Also I use prune juice as Lottie has constipation problems.

Anything you'd use to make smoothies basically. If you have a food processor whizz up some strawberries and banana. Apple & pear. Melon and grapes etc etc.

Freeze any of the lovley fruit juices you can buy in chiller cabinets. Orange juice and Lychee, apple juice etc etc.

Not for the kids but for you - lamonade would be nice frozen as well.

bosscat - found it in the local pound shop for £1.20, looks just like the tupperware ones of the 80's, they still got some if you want me to send one.

thanks for the other recipes - realised at dinner that theres not enough room in the freezer to putit in, so it's meals from freezer till saturday to make room for it!
