Gingerbread Houses 2010

My girls love it every year when the day finally comes that we pull out the Christmas candy and the graham crackers and make their gingerbread houses!!! We usually put each girls house on their own special tray so they can create whatever scene they want.

Always make sure you put the house together one day early because it needs to be dry and strong for the candies!

Have fun and go all out! Use whatever candy you may have leftover from Halloween. Skittles and gumballs work nice. Licorice and tootsie rolls. M &M's and even candy your hubby brought you from Europe!!!

Let the kids create their own scene. Don't worry about how perfect you may think it needs to be. It is their creation and everything your darling creates is adorable right?!!!!
