Kindergarteners and Gingerbread
Kindergarten participated in a gingerbread unit. We made gingerbread cookies from scratch and ate them for snack time. We also made a boat for our gingerbread people to help them across the river. Some gingerbread people didn't make it. : 0 Then we made gingerbread houses to celebrate.
