Shark Watermelon Tutorial

I saw this cool shark idea in a newspaper article in the food section...This is why we had a shark party!
look for an oblong shaped watermelon
cut 1/3 off at an angle
stand up and mark where the mouth and eyeballs will go using a dry erase pen
cut out the mouth and trim back the green part of the rind to leave room to cut out the teeth
cut out the teeth and make two small holes for the eyes, I used grapes and secured them with toothpicks
attach the fin with toothpicks (use the section taken out to make mouth, and cut out a fin shape)
put back in mouth watermelon and Swedish Fish candies
