Gingerbread army

12/3/2014

11 Comments

 

Little E enjoyed decorating some gingerbread men last week. This little kit was from the bakery department of Sainsbury's but you could easily DIY yourself with homemade gingerbread men which would be yummy.

Picture

The kit contained a tube of green icing, sprinkles and multicoloured smarties. The icing acted like glue which appealed to Little E's obsession with glue sticks. She was very excited by the novelty that she could actually eat this glue...

Despite a lot of the decorations being eaten en route, they all got decorated for a short time (just long enough to take a photo) before Little E picked off all the smarties and ate them...

Oh yes, we've had these before - lots of fun! I know Little Man would just eat the kit at this point, so will wait until he's older...! Lovely photos x #LetKidsBeKids

It's just great when you can not only create wonderful works of art but then eat them afterwards! #LetKidsBeKids

I love the look of concentration on her face. She is obviously giving the activity a lot of thought. It's no wonder the finished products got ate so quickly!

Thanks for the lovely comments everyone :-) She did seem more interested in eating the decorations than the actual gingerbread men and looked slightly horrified when I bit an arm off...

These look fantastic and oh so yummy. I love love gingerbread cookies. I can't wait to bake with my two, they are both a little young now but soon hopefully. Great fun activity to do with the kids.
