I'm going to show you how to creatively carve a pumpkin. Getting our tools together for creative pumpkin carving. Let's get started here. Okay, so a couple of these tools, these instruments if you will, are going to be familiar to general pumpkin carving...just your more traditional pumpkin carving. While other ones are going to be a little different; a little new. First we are going to have a couple of knives...sharper knives. So again, children, do not do this at home alone because we are going to need to make some pretty fine cuts again, so we are moving beyond butter knives. You, of course, can do that. It's just literally probably triple the expected amount of time. We are also going to have a carving tool. This is going to be for some of the finer cuts we will be making. It's going to have a glow stick; something a little different there. A fork; a flathead screwdriver. You can also use a Phillips for the purpose of what we are going to be using the screwdriver for a bunch of thumbtacks; probably about ten to twenty. There are going to be a bunch of options of what you are going to be able to use, but at least ten. We are also going to want to have a good black felt-tip marker; the more staining, the better. We want something that's going to be able to write on pumpkin skin without blending, blurring, etc. Last, but not least, we are going to have a scythe which is kind of just a plastic tool. It's not the real one, a plastic will do, so don't worry about that. And of course, who could forget? We are going to need a pumpkin!
