Ginger Ray Wooden Christmas Gingerbread Garland Bunting, Brown/Red/White

Product Information

If your classroom needs livening up for the winter holiday season, you can use my gingerbread man templates to help brighten the space. This beautifully designed Christmas Gingerbread Bunting also adds a lovely touch of colour to the classroom, harnessing your kids' excitement and keeping them happy in class. When you’re hosting a Christmas party, the last thing you want to do is spend a fortune on decorating your house. Or you could have your students color in/decorate the gingerbread men however they like, then write a paragraph about how the gingerbread men got to be decorated like that. 1. Party Games This makes a lovely rainy day activity to share with your children and will result in a lovely banner to decorate your home. Win a Gingerbread Man Bunting Sewing Kit

You’ll print out the templates and then have the kids cut them in half. They’ll color in the top half of the gingerbread men.Of course, they are far from realistic – I go for cute when I create characters for my printables – and they also get names too! This handy Hello Winter Colouring Activity Poster gives your children the opportunity to practise their colouring and fine motor skills, as well as giving them something lovely to take home with them or put up on display. Great for increasing familiarity with this topic. Finally, Sakura’s Microperm® pen is perfect for outlining. A fine tip gives you control in small areas, and the ink won’t bleed, even on this absorbent paper.

Next up: Gelly Roll Stardust® pens. These pens have glitter in the ink for a bit of sparkle. Perfect for this gingerbread girl! Conversely, you could also turn the gingerbread men into the card itself – print off two copies of the same template and staple them together on one side. 8. Christmas Party Decorations We hope you will have fun whipping up these crochet gingerbread man patterns – we’re pretty sure you will! A fun use for my gingerbread men is to use them to make crown crafts (this is a perfect activity for a Christmas party that includes kids!). Tired of the same old decorations? Fed up with tangled lights? Bored of boxes of boisterous baubles? Fear not, Twinkl Art Gallery is the place for you! We’ve popped together this handy blog with our 10 ways to have artsy and festive fun with Twinkl Art Gallery. Where can I find more resources like this?Slip a cute family pic into the frame, and you have a really nice DIY gift! 4. Gingerbread Man Mosaic Crafts These gingerbread biscuits are perfect for Christmas. Using a basic gingerbread man recipe, when the biscuits come out of the oven, simply turn them upside down and they become the shape of reindeer heads. Use tubed icing to decorate the gingerbread biscuits and hey presto! Lovely Christmas biscuits. Another great resource like this is this Christmas Spiced Biscuits Recipe. In fact, you could get your students to color them in and decorate them, and then hang them up around the classroom. 2. Classroom Activities This beautifully illustrated Christmas Gingerbread Bunting is just the thing to help get your class ready for Winter and Christmas this year. It makes a lovely addition to your classroom as you head into the winter term. Or, if you're a parent, it can be a great way to add a bit of winter fun to your child's learning at home, as well as a great way to get everything looking nice and wintery and into the festive spirit.

Nothing says “love” like a DIY Christmas card, and my gingerbread men are ideal for decorating them.When mixing your dough, it may seem like it is going to be a bit dry, once you’ve added the flour. Don’t worry! Once you get your hands in to help mix, the warmth from your hands will help the butter/margarine soften more and help bring everything together.
