Popsicles are great in the summer, but did you know that they were invented in winter ? And by an eleven-year-old boy?

Слайд 3

A long time ago, a boy named Frank Epperson was sitting on his front porch stirring soda in New York. Suddenly, something distracted him, and he ran away, forgetting his soda. That night, the temperature reached an all-time low. Frank awoke in the morning to the world's favorite summer snack-the popsicle!

It all started in 1905 when little Frank Epperson was having fun making some soda pop. It WAS winter, so, when he took it inside the next morning, it was frozen solid with the mixing stick sticking right out of the top. He picked it up, licked it, and it was surprisingly delicious. He called it an Epperson icicle. After awhile, he shortened the name to Epsicle . He sold the Epsicle for five cents each that summer. Later on, he changed the name again to popsicle, because he made it with soda POP mix.

Now you can get popsicles in all sorts of flavors, shapes, and sizes. You can thank that eleven year old boy back in 1905 who made a mistake that worked!
