For an interesting centerpiece, leave off the strawberries on the sharp end of the skewer. Place reserved melon half on a serving platter and stick the heart throb-bobs into it. For toddlers, arrange fruit and cheese on a tray.

I have made these several times for my son's catering business. Everyone seems to enjoy the good-for-you fruit displayed in this different manner.

This is an awesome Idea! My 4 yr old loves them, and she loves to help make them. She doesn''t even realize how healthy they are because they are so healthy.
