	Kidsville Kitchen Watermelon! published: August 2007 By Staff Report Email Author August is a great month for watermelon! In many parts of our country, you'll even find watermelon festivals and celebrations during August. Watermelon is a great snack when it's hot outside, and since it is 92% water, it also helps keep you hydrated. It makes a great snack for sports activities, and it tastes great! Here are some fun ideas to try. Watermelon Berry Slush WHAT YOU NEED: 4 cups cubed, seeded watermelon 1 10-ounce package frozen raspberries 1 12-ounce bottle sparkling mineral water DIRECTIONS: 1. Place watermelon in a single layer in shallow pan; freeze until firm. Remove from freezer and let stand 5 minutes. 2. Drop watermelon through food chute of a food processor or blender with the motor running. Add frozen raspberries alternately with mineral water, processing until smooth. Makes 6 servings. Watermelon Dippers This fresh dip with a hint of sweetness makes a treat kids will love! WHAT YOU NEED: 8 ounces sour cream 4 tablespoons sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Watermelon stix or small wedges DIRECTIONS: Blend together the sour cream, sugar and vanilla in a small serving bowl. Use as a dip for the watermelon. Recipes courtesy of the National Watermelon Promotion Board, www.watermelon.org.
