It's a tradition in our home to decorate Gingerbread Houses for Christmas... this year we found some clearance Halloween kits for different shaped homes and my boys loved them. The kits are a great start... to make things easy, I hot glue the houses together and let the children enjoy being creative. I like to follow Bakerella's advice on having tons of different sprinkles on hand. To spark creativity, some of the best things to spruce up your gingerbread kits are... food writers, fondant and fondant molds! The kids had fun, made a mess, but it was worth it.
Joe Joe's house (6 years old), Brooke's Creative Cottage (2 1/2 years old) and Matthew's Magical House (4 years old)... They make my heart sing! |
