8 (10-inch) wooden skewers

1/2 a cantaloupe, cut into 10 to 12 chunks

10 to 12 grapes, red or green seedless

8 to 10 pineapple chunks

1 apple, cut into 10 to 12 chunks

1. Soak the wooden skewers in water for about 30 minutes so that the fruit slides on more easily.

2. Cut the whole fruit into chunks.

3. Skewer the fruits on the sticks in alternate patterns.

**To keep the apples from turning brown, squeeze a little lemon juice over them after you have cut them in chunks.**

You can also add colorful marshmallows to the fruit sticks to add some variety to them.
