Most of the kids in our neighborhood go to year-round schools. That means that each kid has only 5 or 6 weeks for their summer break before starting the next year of school. Plus, with different schedules for many of the schools, most of our neighborhood friends only had 2 or 3 weeks of break at the same time our kids did.
Since my kids haven’t been able to spend a lot of time with the other kids this summer, we thought a neighborhood party would be a great way to get everyone together. We had a backyard party with games, decorations, fun and lots of yummy Bomb Pops!
The kids helped my get the table area while we waited for everyone to arrive. We had the snack area, baseball/t-ball area, Bomb Pop beanbag toss and zipline all ready to go.
The younger kids had a great time playing the Bomb Pop beanbag toss. They could get a Single, Double, Triple or Grand Slam depending on which hole they got the beanbag through.
The older kids enjoyed playing baseball. They practiced hitting for a while with my husband and then played a mini-game of baseball with teams of 3. It was a lot of fun to watch and I could tell the kids were having a great time!
With the heat and humidity here in North Carolina, it wasn’t long before everyone was hot and ready for a break. We brought everyone over to the table in the shade and let them pick out Bomb Pops.
We had four awesome flavors for everyone to pick from: Original (Cherry, Lime, Blue Raspberry), Sour Power, Hawaiian Punch and Sugar-free Original.
The kids all picked a flavor and sat down to enjoy. I knew my kids would love Bomb Pops because they often choose them when our ice cream truck comes by. The other kids who came to the party really loved theirs too.
All of the flavors were huge hits!
After the kids enjoyed their Bomb Pops and cooled off in the shade, they headed down to the zipline area. The kids had a great time taking turns riding the zipline and playing on the playset for the rest of the party.
When it was time for everyone to head home, each child got his/her own Bomb Pop baseball and Keychain and the Moms got a coupon for their own Bomb Pops. Everyone was happy to get a little take-home surprise!
Bomb Pop is an official sponsor of Little League® Baseball and Softball, so you’ve probably seen their awesome treats before if you have Little Leaguers® in your family. My girls play soccer and get to bring snacks for “their” week, so we’re planning to take a cooler of Bomb Pop ice pops from now on. They’re cold, refreshing and they hit the spot on a hot Southern summer day!

I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Bomb Pop. I received product samples, a party kit, and a promotional item as a thank you for participating.
Looks like a lot of fun. My son loves popsicles I will have to try these.
ooh,new flavors!! my son will love the sour wower and i want to try the hawaiian punch!
I LOVED these as a kid!!! I need to try the new flavors. My son is very limited on what he can safely eat when it comes to frozen treats. These are totally safe though! Good to know!
What a great party! Nice job. I didn’t know Bomb Pops came in so many flavors. I definitely want to try the Banana Fudge flavor!
Looks like everyone had a great time. You did a great with all the games! And the goodies were a nice surprise for the kids. iI used to buy these for my kids at Boy Scout Day Camps. They sure have changed the flavors up!
This looks like a fun party to have when it is so hot outside. And the Bomb pops are a treat that I and my family would love to try. I am going to have to get some of the Bomb Pops and the flavor that I like is the Blue Raspberry flavor!
This looks like such an End Of The Summer party!!! The blue raspberry ones are soooooo good and my 2 year old granddaughter eats them everytime she comes to my house on the weekends.
Bomb Pops have been around forever and they never lose their appeal- so good!
I loved them as a kid and so do my children.
Looks like it was fun! The tear jerkers sour cherry flavor sounds yummy for this pregnant lady right here!!!!
This party was a great idea! Looked like a lot of fun! I didn’t realize there were that many variety of flavors of Astro pops, they all sound good.
