The Little Owls have been listening to the story of 'the Gingerbread Man' this week.  We have been using props and puppets to retell the story and using a variety of materials to decorate gingerbread men.  A large gingerbread house was a great opportunity to develop an interest in mark making.  Some of us even made bridges so that the gingerbread man could cross the river safely.

The Little Owls made gingerbread men this week!  Rolling the dough was a great workout for our muscles.  We remembered and talked about parts of the story as we shaped the dough.  We noticed that it had a yummy smell and we could not wait to eat them!
