Directions to create a Watermelon Shark...

Step 1: Cut the bottom third of the watermelon off.

Step 2: With the watermelon sitting on the flat end, draw the sharks mouth using a dry-erase marker.

Step 3: Follow the lines and cut the mouth out.

Step 4: Cut the top and bottom teeth.

Step 5: Carefully cut the green layer of the rind off, letting the lighter color show.

Step 6: To form the fin, cut the bottom third of the watermelon in three pieces.  Secure one of the pieces to the back side of the shark with toothpicks.

Step 7: Using a melon baller, ball all of the melon and put it into a large bowl.  When rind is empty, fill it with the melon balls.  Place the remainder around the shark.  I use a large pizza pan to put everything on.

Step 8: Finish your shark off by fastening two blueberries as eyes, using toothpicks.
