How to Carve a Pumpkin

How to Carve a Pumpkin
by Mya Grace Malson
Step One: Select the size and shape of pumpkin to best fit your design Step Two: draw your design onto your pumpkin
Step Three: cut a hole in the top (mommy has to do this step)
Step Four: assess the situation to see how big of a bowl you will need to put the "guts"in
Step Five: using your hands, scoop the guts out of the pumpkin...
...and place them in the bowl provided to you by mommy
Step Six: cut out the design drawn on in step #2 (as demonstrated by Aunt Amanda)
Step Seven: place a small candle or tea light in the bottom of your now hallow pumpkin and put the lid back on
Step Eight: pose for a picture to document this year's artwork
Step Nine: place outside and light the candle!
