Watermelon Sorbet

I like a cold sweet treat in the summer, and children definitely love a cold sweet treat all year long. As a mom and preschool teacher, it is important to me to teach the children how to enjoy the sweetness of natural fruit while they are young. This way they do not develop an addiction to sugar. Which in turn could affect them negatively in their youth, and later in their adulthood. One of my favorite treats is Italian ice. I love how it tastes creamy and fruity and becomes an even better sweet as it melts.
