5 Kid-Friendly Watermelon Recipes
There is just something so heartwarming about seeing a child with a big ‘ole piece of watermelon in their mouth. It just screams summer!
Not only is it fun to eat, it’s nutritious too! Did you know watermelon is 90% water?! It’s also full of Vitamins A & C, as well as potassium and fiber. There’s so much to do with watermelon to make it kid-friendly!
Amanda’s Cookin has some adorable Watermelon Cookies!
Gator Mommy’s Frozen Watermelon Lemonade is the perfect refreshing drink after coming in from a hot summer’s day!
It doesn’t get much more fun (or simple) than The Thrifty Couple’s Frozen Watermelon Pops.
Having a summer get together? Kids will love how adorable this Scared Kitty Watermelon is and how easy it is to pick watermelon balls out of the bowl!

I am sooooo happy that it’s watermelon season! We can’t get enough of it here and it is in such abundance from our CSA. These are great ideas. I’ll try to make one of them happen… if we can patiently put it together instead of just reaching in and grabbing bites.
My husband is far from being a kid but he would love all of your watermelon recipes. He lives for the season. Thanks for hosting and sharing your great recipes.
Blessings,
Shari

My 4 year old has been going berserk over watermelon lately so I can only begin to imagine what he will do over a watermelon cake with blueberries as well as the other recipes. Thank you.
I love these ideas! Next year at the family gatherings that I attend I’ll have to remember these so I can contribute something more than the buns/condiments. 😀
I love watermelon when it’s icy cold and perfectly sweet. I can never quite tell if they’re ripe or not, so for me, it’s kind of hit or miss when I buy a whole melon.
I love watermelon! Bookmarking these for the summer 🙂
These recipes are too cute! I know my whole family would love the cookies. Watermelon is by far our favorite summer fruit. Thanks for sharing these with us!
These are all so cute! thank you for the recipes, I will be using them soon.
I think the watermelon cake would be a really fun thing to make this summer with my niece, who just happens to love watermelon!
that cat one is so cute! I just love watermelon! thanks for the ideas.
The frozen watermelon lemonade looks dandy. My son loves slushies and this is what it looks like to me. A nice summer treat along with more watermelon on our plates. I could eat watermelon all day everyday. It’s so juicy!
