Instead of buying one of those prepackaged gingerbread houses, why not make your own, from scratch?
Gingerbread house building was probably one of the most fun experiences I ever had with my children when they were younger. Kids just love decorating a gingerbread house and all the mixing and measuring is educational too! I found a great page that contains everything you’ll need to know to become an expert gingerbread carpenter.
Make a Gingerbread House contains a delicious gingerbread recipe, instructions for making the pattern, decorating tips, and also includes a video demonstration to help you create a gorgeous homemade gingerbread house. You’ll also learn the interesting history behind the making of the first gingerbread houses.
