Fruit Critter Salad

10 pieces lettuce
20 raisins
10 cherries
10 canned peach or pear halves
1 tray
toothpicks

Take the tray and the lettuce. Put lettuce in rows. Take peaches or pears and put on each piece of lettuce, round side up. Take raisins and toothpicks and put the raisins on the toothpicks. Put the raisins on the peach so it looks like 2 eyes. Take the cherries and the toothpicks and put the cherries on the toothpicks. Stick on the peach or pear so that it looks like a nose. Then you have fruit critter salads.!
