We had a blast making Gingerbread houses today. They were very simple if anyone wants to dare trying them. Matthew made these last year in school. If 20 kindergarten kids can make them so can any of you.

This is house #1. We call it "the shack" Notice the
bling on the rat!

#2 This is the "Panda
Mansion"
complete with pool, flower bed, and fire pit.

#3)This is the classic cottage. It has a nice wooden fence and a great pond. It would probably even have lace curtains if you could look inside.

House #4 is a on a large snow covered lot. The walk way is lined with blue glass pebbles and yellow
necco stone. It's seems to have a sad face on the front of it. The dot tree however, adds a little height.

Number 5 screams..."CANDY" we should call it the "I LOVE CANDY" house. This one was constructed with the builder asking "how do you like it now" every 5 seconds if that helps.

here is the neighborhood. Isn't it sweet!

Bob the builder! Can we fix it? Yes we can.

Mr. Perfection! He said that we should have Grandma Dot judge.

Look at that spread.
These are made by using milk cartons as the foundation. That is what makes them easy and stable.
OK, here are our votes as follows and why:
ReplyDelete#2 - Hannah (She thinks that it looks like a real house that a gingerbread man would like to live in.)
#4 - Carter (I don't know.)
#4 - Jenny (Sorry, it has balance.)
I took a poll of the kids to:
ReplyDeleteI liked #2 with the flower bed and fire pit right? Sweet!
Selah liked #3, it was very pink, but had a hard time choosing between that and #1 because the mouse had a necklace!
Jack liked #4 and said he liked the walk way
Luke is insisting he likes #6, the picture of the neighborhood
Mark votes for #5 because it's most original. He's never seen anything like it before in his ENTIRE life!
ReplyDeleteGracie votes for #5 too. She likes all the stuff on it. :)
Sorry, Nora is in the tub! :( She'll vote later.
ReplyDeleteLuke is going to be a politican!! That is the best. Really, his vote is for all of them.
