Here are 6 different gingerbread man templates (well, actually 5 gingerbread men and 1 gingerbread woman) that you can use for all kinds of activities.
The beauty of templates is that you can create activities that are as simple or as complex as you want.
Or do both!
Here a few ideas to get your imagination going:
-
- Simply print them off and set them down on a table with a box of crayons or colored pencils for your kids
- Cut out several gingerbread men on brown construction paper or cardstock and lay them out on a table along with some fun things for kids to decorate them with:
- Make homemade felt gingerbread man tree ornaments
- Make a cute gingerbread man pop-up card
- Make puppets out of brown paper bags
- Make felt gingerbread men with googly eyes, buttons, and paint pens
- Use colored tissue paper to make a stained glass gingerbread man
