How To Cut A Watermelon
Cut the top and bottom stem end of the watermelon so that you create a flat surface for the watermelon to sit on the cutting board.
With the flat section on the board, grab a sharp knife and cut the skin of the watermelon slicing downwards. Do this all around the watermelon.
With the flat section on the board, cut the watermelon in half.
Lay each half on the cutting board, then cut each half or quarters (depending on the size of your watermelon).

Watermelon Tips
- Wash the melon before you cut it to get rid of any dirt and bacteria lurking around.
- The size you cut the melon into depends entirely on the size of the whole melon. Larger melons will need to be cut into more wedges.
- Feel free to grab a melon baller or cookie cutters and use these to make fun shapes.
