A Fun and Safe Pumpkin-Carving Experience

Nothing can get your family in the Halloween spirit like carving a pumpkin together. To help ensure your children enjoy a fun and safe pumpkin-carving experience, we’ve put together this list of tips, tools, and general advice.

 

  1. Pick a pumpkin that’s good for carving.
  • Avoid a pumpkin that feels heavy for its size. This can indicate thick walls that could be difficult to carve through.
  • Avoid any pumpkins with soft spots, which can indicate rotting.
  • Ask your child to help you “inspect” the pumpkin to be sure it doesn’t have any nicks or cuts that may make it vulnerable to spoiling.
  1. Take precautions when carving.
