Happy Saturday! Today is a great day to spend some time with your family and create something unique together!
Check out this activity:
What You Need:
- Craft paper
- Colored card stock (in pink, red, green and yellow)
- White card stock
- Black marker
- Scissors
- Glue stick (this one has the strongest hold)
- Brown paper bag
- Gingerbread man template OR your own Gingerbread man with pencil and paper
Directions:
Download the gingerbread man template, print and cut out the pieces.
Glue the circle buttons to the middle of the gingerbread man body.

Use the black marker to draw four small circles on the circle buttons you just glued on to make it look more like a real button.

Glue the icing details on the end of the arms and the legs. Use the scissors to cut the excess ends off.


Position the gingerbread man’s hair and the top of his circle head and glue into place.

Glue the eyes just below the hair.

Place the pink circle cheeks below the eyes and glue in place.

Use the black marker again to draw a smile between the two pink cheeks.

If you’re making a girl gingerbread, glue the bow onto the top of her head. If you’re making a boy gingerbread, glue the bow to the top of his body piece.

Glue the completed gingerbread body to the lower part of the brown paper bag.

Glue the completed head to the flap of the brown paper bag.

Isn’t this one of the cutest and simplest Christmas crafts for kids?
We just love how cute they turned out!
