share this article

Looking for a refreshing way to support your kid’s digestion this summer? These Watermelon + Kiwi Digestive Cubes are a hydrating, gut-friendly snack that can help keep things moving, especially for kiddos prone to constipation during warmer months.
Packed with fiber, natural enzymes, and hydration, these cubes are a fun, functional treat your little one will love. And with the optional addition of Growing Up Prebiotics, they deliver even more digestive support in a way that's totally kid-approved.
Why Watermelon + Kiwi?
These two fruits are more than just sweet and summery—they’re naturally supportive of gut motility and hydration.
-
Watermelon is 92% water, making it perfect for preventing dehydration, which is a major cause of constipation in kids.
-
Kiwi contains a unique enzyme called actinidin, which has been shown to promote regularity and improve stool consistency in both adults and kids. It also delivers fiber and vitamin C.
Together, they hydrate, gently stimulate digestion, and keep summer poops soft and smooth.
Ingredients (Serves 6)
-
2 cups cubed watermelon
-
2 ripe kiwis, peeled and chopped
-
1 tsp lemon juice (optional, for brightness)
-
6 scoops Growing Up Prebiotics
Instructions
-
Blend: Add the watermelon, kiwi, lemon juice, and Growing Up Prebiotics (if using) into a blender. Blend until smooth.
-
Pour: Pour the mixture into silicone ice cube trays or popsicle molds.
-
Freeze: Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until solid.
-
Serve: Pop out cubes and serve to your kiddo as a snack, ice cube in water, or melt-in-your-mouth treat after outdoor play.
Why Add Growing Up Prebiotics?
If your little one struggles with constipation or irregular stools, adding a prebiotic like chicory root inulin and HMO (2’-FL) can help restore a healthy gut balance. Growing Up Prebiotics is tasteless and texture-free, making it easy to sneak into fruit-based snacks like this one without a single complaint.
It’s perfect for hot-weather days when fiber-rich meals can be harder to get down.
Summary
These Watermelon + Kiwi Digestive Cubes are a delicious way to hydrate, soothe the gut, and keep digestion moving, without turning on the stove. Pair them with prebiotics and a good hydration routine to help your little one stay regular, cool, and happy all summer long.
