Cucumbers, anyone?

We were due for a new change in our Food Preparation lesson - our apple chopping work has remained popular over the months, but we really needed a variation!   Enter the Asian-themed tray, heart-shaped cookie cutters, and cucumbers:

Tray for placing cucumber slices, two cookie cutter hearts (different sizes), cutting board, and toothpicks.

Here the child has taken the necessary materials to a table...

...and using a cutter to make a cucumber heart.  We have two different sized hearts so that they child may determine which one best fits the size of the cucumber slice.  
Placing toothpicks on each cucumber...

...to offer to some friends!
