ZOMBIE SHRUNKEN HEAD APPLE CARVING
Supplies:
1 Apple per person (green or red)
Craft Knives (1 per person)
Paring Knives
Water
Lemon Juice
Salt
Green food dye
Wooden kabob spears
Black beads (for eyes)
Instructions:
Using paring knife carefully peel the apple. Use craft knives to begin carve a zombie face in apple. *Be VERY CAREFUL when using craft knives and make sure teens always cut AWAY from themselves. Eyes should have a slit for beads to be pushed in to when ready. When finished carving face soak apple in Water, Lemon Juice, Food Dye & Salt mix. Be prepared to send these home with teens without completely finishing the project. It can take several days for the apple heads to dry completely. Will feel like sponges when ready for beads to be inserted for eyes.
