Gingerbread Science
Look at JN's gingerbread man after he put it in water. It disolved in the bottom of his cup!
Can you see JL's gingerbread cookie? I wonder what will happen? Kindergartners were very excited about their experiment. In the story of the gingerbread man he rides on the fox's back to keep from getting wet, so we decided to find out what happens to gingerbread when it does get wet. Here is what we discovered: He crushed up into little pieces... he broke into pieces... he got slimy but when I took him out of the water he broke... he stayed together until I put my hand in the water... the water turned green and he got mushy.. when I took it out it broke... smushed and broke into little pieces... only the part I put in the water broke off...

Reindeer Toast
Today we made reindeer toast. First we spread peanut butter on the toast, then we added raisin or chocolate chip eyes, a cherry nose, and pretzel antlers.
Traveling Gingerbread Men
SB is getting her gingerbread man letter ready to mail. We send gingerbread men all over the United States and we hope to get some postcards back in the mail that tell where our gingerbread men traveled.
