It’s been great for the baby especially, since she probably would hold the darn popsicle until one of her fingers froze off! My favorite part about the Ice Huggy though is a feature that the don’t even advertise: it really really cuts down on the popsicle mess. Because the Ice Huggy wraps all the way around the popsicle, and because it has a bottom, and because it’s machine washable, the product keeps all of the sticky popsicle juice from running down my children’s arms and it helps keep me from losing my mind!
