AG DAY: 7. Preparing the coconuts for my wreath

My wreath is going to be made out of coconuts. So tonight we washed a coconut and tried to cut it open. 

First, I soaked the coconut in water to make the shell more fragile. 


Next, I couldn't break the coconut because the knife was too sharp. So my mum broke it for me. 


Mum got out the coconut water and the flesh. I was too scared to try it but my brother Hunter tried it. He was brave and he is only 5!


Mum had to cut the flesh out with a sharp knife. 

Mummy was resilient because she didn't give up even though the coconut was really hard. 

Mummy asked all her friends on Facebook if they had any left over coconut shells that I could have because it was quite hard for her. Neelam from the Dairy said she had some I could have. Mummy and I were happy that we didn't need to cut and buy any more coconuts.
