Our children continue to enjoy the Gingerbread man story so today we shared the story at mat time and then.....
we made Gingerbread men!!!
The children all gathered around the table and together we took turns to pour, stir and mix the ingredients together.
Some of the children remembered what ingredients we needed for our recipe, just like the little old lady in the story.
"Flour, sugar, ginger, butter and milk"
Although we were a little surprised by the smell of the ginger. We passed it around the table so that we could all have a smell....
"It's smells like Tiger ginger" Lua said.
"Yeah like Lion ginger" said Kiani.
It was lovely to see everyone taking turns and sharing. Everyone was considerate of others as they all waited for a mix or an opportunity to add an ingredient.
After the ingredients had all been added we began to roll out our dough... this was a big job, in fact it was a very sticky job!
Then we pressed out our shapes so that we had rows and rows of gingerbread men.
