We take time to finger paint a gingerbread man cut out.
We make a really really BIG gingerbread man of our own using gingerbread cookie dough. Its hard to make one free form so a shape is traced onto parchment paper and we work on pressing the dough inside the lines.
After all the dough is pressed in we add a few decorations for his eye, nose, and buttons. Then into the oven he goes.
It took a long time for him to bake and he was starting to smell really good. So naturally we checked on him. When we opened the oven door we were shocked to see that he was gone!
After following the flour trail he left all over the school, we finally found him out back playing near the sandbox. He was 'chilling' out and having some fun.
We quickly caught him and brought him inside.
He didn't put up to much of a fight and was a really yummy snack.
Since it was so much fun catching the gingerbread man, we decided it would be nice to make a hat with him on it.
Now we can pretend to be a gingerbread man too.
