Juicy Watermelon Snacks

You will need a watermelon, cookie cutters, plastic knives, low-fat yogurt and toppings. First, a staff member should cut the whole watermelon into slices that are approximately ½ inch thick, making a large round disk with the rind on the outer edge. Place the slices on a flat cutting surface and have the children cut the watermelon into shapes with cookie cutters. Children can use plastic knives to frost the watermelon cut-outs with yogurt and then top with a sprinkle of coconut, nuts (be sensitive to nut allergies) or crunchy low-fat cereal. Delicious, refreshing and fun!
