Create ornaments from the story, Gingerbread Baby, to give as holiday gifts.
Materials: - Gingerbread Baby by Jan Brett
- patterns - download at www.Janbrett.com from the
Gingerbread Baby Story
- plastic margarine tops for making templates
- applesauce
- glue
- cinnamon
- cookie cutters
Plan: - Trace and use the Gingerbread Baby patterns for templates. I like to use old plasic margin tops for templates.
- Mix together applesauce, cinnamon, and glue together until they make a thick type clay.
- Press into molds or roll flat and cut around the templates.
- Put a hole at the top while they are still wet.
- Let dry and add thin ribbon and bows to complete the gift.
