It is hot, hot, HOT out there today so I thought I would share a COOL idea I originally shared as a guest over at Made From Pinterest. I made these fun Popsicle Kit to give to our friends and neighbors as a “Welcome to Summer” gift. Now that summer is officially underway and the temperatures are starting to soar let’s turn an ordinary summer into an extraordinary one with a creative Popsicle Kit your friends will love!
Beat the heat this summer with a bucket full of popsicle supplies and lots of fun. Here is what you’ll need to make your own Popsicle Kit, most of these supplies can be found at the dollar store.
- Bucket
- Box of Popsicles
- Popsicle mold
- Kool-aid packets
- Fruit for your favorite popsicle recipe
- Washi tape popsicle sticks
- Popsicle shaped bubbles
Fill your bucket with shredded filler and then place your supplies inside. I made DIY washi tape popsicle sticks and put them in a clear cellphone bags and added a “summer fun” tag. Since the details are what turn an ordinary bucket of stuff into an extraordinary Popsicle Kit I used popsicle printables from Dimpleprints to help jazz up my gift basket.
Deliver your popsicle kit to neighbors or friends so they can beat the heat and enjoy an EXTRAORDINARY summer!
Popsicles are such a quintessential summer treat and your friends are sure to love celebrating summer with a Popsicle Kit! Or you can always host a Popsicle Party at the pool like we did.

Can we please discuss what those tiny candy popsicle things are in the pictures?! I absolutely adore them and MUST have some.
Mariah says
Monica, they are Mike and Ike candies and I inserted part of a toothpick to make them look like popsicles. Super easy and everyone LOVES them! 🙂
