Raizel wanted me to post on the blog her first attempt at using a sharp knife and cutting up a cantaloupe.
Many people take for granted the ability to use a shape knife and cut. However, it really involves a lot of skills. This is a major accomplishment for Raizel. She is very proud!

That’s awesome! Canteloupe in particular can indeed be tricky to get it from it’s untouched state to edible. It’s aways worth the effort, though. 🙂

Well done Raizel 🙂
And the cantaloupe looks yummy 🙂
I haven’t started my “cantaloupe season” yet – that’s when I eat cantaloupes with some prosciutto in them instead of any other meal 😉

Kudos to Raizel! Mastering a sharp knife IS hard for the kiddos to learn (especially without cutting themselves!).

Yes! Normally, she will do anything to avoid needing to cut or use a knife. This time she volunteered!

It was a perfect melon so she was very motivated to eat it. A very big step. She actually asked me to post it,
