The Pre-schoolers have enjoyed listening to many traditional stories during this term. They particularly loved the story of the Gingerbread Man.

After hearing the story of the gingerbread man, they used playdough cutters to make their own little gingerbread man and Letterland friends to match up the letters of the word ‘gingerbread man.’ They also decorated gingerbread cookies, homebaked by Krys Mann, with frosting and edible decorations. They reinforced their knowledge of shapes and numbers, as they looked for three buttons to decorate them. The highlight of the activities was singing the part “Run, run as fast as you can, you can’t catch me, I’m the Gingerbread Man,” and of course getting to eat the cookies was a delight, too!

Thank you Krys for the cookies and all your help with the decorating, and also for the great photos.
Your slideshow was awesome but it made us all feel really hungry! It looked a lot of fun. The gingerbread cookies looked delicious and we think that you must have enjoyed decorating them.
THAT WAS GREAT! IT LOOKS YUMMY TOO AND THEY’RE SO CUTE.
Thanks, very much for looking at our Blog this week. You are welcome to come in to read, play, or just talk with the children whenever you like.
