Instructions
  1. Slice off the very top of the turnip and hollow out the inside using a sharp paring knife and a spoon (parents only).

  2. Carefully carve facial features in one side.

  3. Cut a circle in the bottom of the turnip, to fit over the end of the flashlight. Finally, turn on the flashlight to give Jack a glow.
