Yankees Pumpkin Stencils

To carve your pumpkin, you can use a pumpkin carving kit from your local grocery store or you can use the following common household tools:

• Spoon
• Serrated knife
• Pin or nail
• Paring knife

After you have removed the seeds from your pumpkin, follow these three easy steps:

1. Tape the stencil to your pumpkin.
2. Using a nail, needle or toothpick, punch holes following the lines of the stencil. Remove the stencil when finished.
3. Have your parents help you cut along the dotted lines you have made with the pin, nail or toothpick.
