Gingerbread House

Overview: Building gingerbread houses at any age is always fun around the holidays! This can be done with any group of kids no matter what the age. All students and kids will have fun making (and eating) their own gingerbread houses. Although the houses acquire a lot of patience, especially with the little ones, it is definitely worth it. Now-a- days a lot of stores carry kits that come with everything you need to build a gingerbread house, but if you want to make a gingerbread the old fashion way, here is how to do it! 

Materials: 
  1. Graham crackers
  2. Piece of square cardboard
  3. Vanilla icing
  4. Empty orange juice or milk carton
  5. Gum drops
  6. Sprinkles
  7. Hershey Kisses
  8. Skittles 
  9. Mints
  10. Any other one of your favorite candies 
Steps:
  1. Stick the carton onto the piece of cardboard using the icing. 
  2. Cover the carton with icing. 
  3. Stick the graham crackers on each side of the carton. (Use extra icing if needed)
  4. Design your house using all the candies and icing to help stick them on. 
  5. Enjoy!
