- 1). Slice a wedge from the watermelon about 4 inches from the end. Set it aside for now.
- 2). Make a cut from one side of the melon to the opposite side, creating a helmet shape where a face would go. Discard this piece and empty out the remainder of the melon. If you're using the melon to hold melon balls, grab your melon baller. Otherwise just scrape the melon out.
- 3). Create the mouthpiece of the helmet using the slice you set aside earlier. Flip the piece over so the meat of the watermelon is facing down. Using a pencil, draw a grid to resemble the helmet's mouth guard and use a small, sharp knife to cut out the grid.
- 4). Set the helmet part of the watermelon on a serving plate. Place the mouthpiece portion up against the helmet to look like it is all one piece. Readjust it as necessary, cutting portions if needed to make the mouthpiece fit comfortably up against the helmet.
- 5). Add whatever snack you want to your helmet and place it on your table.
