Tips and preparations:

• To scoop out the pumpkin flesh, you will need a spoon.
• Additionally, you will need a candle or lights.

How to carve a pumpkin:

1. First, cut off the top of the pumpkin. To do this, draw a circle on top and run a knife along the contour. Do not throw away the top itself.

2. At this stage, you should completely clean the pumpkin from the pulp. Wipe the middle of the vegetable with a napkin.

3. Draw eyes and nose in the shape of triangles with a felt-tip pen. You also need to draw a smiling mouth and teeth in it. Cut out the figures with a knife.

4. Place the candle in a glass/jar or cut a special hole for it. Insert it into the pumpkin.

5. Light the candle and cover the pumpkin with the top.
