The Gingerbread Man
We have loved reading the story of 'The Gingerbread Man'. As part of our topic learning we have been baking Gingerbread Men biscuits. The children carefully weighed out the ingredients and watched closely as the ingredients changed into a dough. Then the children rolled out the dough and cut out their Gingerbread man before putting it into the oven to bake. Their favourite part was decorating their biscuits with icing pens, googly eyes and smarties. We loved how each Gingerbread Man was different and unique! We have also been recreating Gingerbread men in our indoor and outdoor classrooms.
