A few weeks ago I saw a really cute idea on pinterest for a cookie cutter fruit salad. The picture was little stars cut of of watermelon mixed with blueberries for the 4th of July.

Cookie Cutter Fruit Salad
Last weekend my sister-in-law graduated from the University of Kansas and we had a little reception at our place afterward. Their mascot is the Jayhawk, so I got a Jayhawk shaped cookie cutter to cut out the watermelon. 
Kansas' school colors are red and blue so I used watermelon, blueberries and strawberries for the salad. 

The only thing I would change next time is that I would get a smaller cookie cutter so that all the fruit is more simmilar in size.

Wash fruit. Slice the watermelon into rounds. Use cookie cutter to cut out shapes and put everything in a serving bowl. 
This would be something fun {and healthy!}to make with kiddos! Also, you could make this for different holidays. Here are a few ideas: St. Patrick's Day-use green honeydew melon and cut out four leaf clovers. Halloween-use orange cantalope and cut out jack-o-lanters. Christmas-use watermelon and cut out santa hats and put a dab of whipped cream on the end for the ball at the end of the hat. There are lots of things you could do. And just like I did here, you could use your team colors for school spirit!
