For the past couple of Christmases, Sean has asked to make a gingerbread house - this year, I finally remembered to pick up a kit before all that was left were broken kits :-)
We set up the materials from the kit (plus some extras we received at the Ship Bottom Christmas parade):
"Mmmmm it smells like gingerbread!"
The kids helped set up the walls...
...and the roof and then they "patiently" waited for the icing to dry before they got started decorating the house!
The kids decorated it almost all by themselves - they only asked for help a few times when they needed fresh icing to help the candy stick to the house...
And the finished product - they were so proud of themselves!
Some detail shots before the kids started to dismantle the house after lunch :-)
