Gingerbread Houses

Today Peter's class made little gingerbread houses, and Miriam and I were able to help and participate in the fun!  His teacher had the houses all ready.  She glued graham crackers to milk cartons and then glued those on to a paper plate.  It made the decorating go much more smoothly than if they'd had to assemble the houses on their own!  The kids had frosting to spread on as their glue, and lots of different types of candy/treats to use for decorating.  She even gave them a gingerbread man cookie to put on their house complete the project.  Mrs. VanSledright was kind enough to have extra houses for Miriam and another sibling who came along, so they could do their own.  Peter was very sweet and let Miriam sit next to him while they were working.
Here they are with their finished products!
