Soothie Suckers are an ingenious product. They are herbs and popsicles all rolled into one product. And they are delicious.
As much as I love using herbal remedies, many herbs don’t taste the best. Have your kids ever told you that some herbal remedy tasted terrible? Mine have. I want my children to enjoy taking their medicine. Soothie Suckers solves this problem by giving children healthy herbs in a great tasting popsicle! The herbs in each popsicle are pre-measured to ensure that your children are getting the correct recommended dosages.
What I love about Soothie Suckers Herbal Ice Pops
1. The Ingredients
I am a huge ingredient reader, and frankly, far too many products contain ingredients that are not what I wish for my children to consume. When I first looked at the ingredients in Soothie Suckers, I breathed a huge sigh of relief that there were no artificial sweeteners like aspartame or splenda. Next, I loved the fact that there were no artificial colors or flavors. Lastly, I was so happy to see a list of herbs that are some of my favorites.
2. Healthier Alternative
Popsicles and fevering sick children go hand in hand. Growing up, I was always given popsicles when I was sick. Most popsicles have very unhealthy ingredients like high fructose corn syrup and artificial colors that work against the body’s immune system and could even contribute towards lengthening an illness. When a person is ill, it’s very important to only feed them things that will work with the immune system toward recovery. That’s why I love that these ice pops have herbs that a body needs to recover!
3. Great Taste
I was recently contacted by the owner of Soothie Suckers and received 2 boxes of the herbal ice pops to see what we thought of them. Of course I tried them out myself too! 🙂 So what did we think about Soothie Suckers? Well, my children liked them sooo much that they ate all of them before I had a chance to take a picture of them eating them. 😉 And I thought they were delicious too!
