BAND-AID Brand Pumpkin Carving Tips: Place pumpkin on a large garbage bag or newspaper for easy clean up. Draw your design on the pumpkin with a pencil or non-permanent marker so that the lines can be removed when finished carving. Use a long, serrated knife.

With these pumpkin carving tips and proper wound care, your Halloween is sure to be a fun one.
