Gather all the seeds and have the children dig through them (after washing hands, of course) to pick off the pulpy bits.
Put the seeds in a colander and let the children take turns stirring the seeds up in a sink of running water to wash the seeds.

Place in a 350 degree F oven until toasty.
Salt if desired.
