I am going to confess here that I never have made a gingerbread house - a big one - with the kids. At preschool they have all done the milk carton/graham cracker ones but I have never done one at home - the potential for a mess was holding me back. This year a wonderful friend bought my kids this kit and we put it together. It was a huge mess, but it was a huge blast! Gloria loved sprinkling on the sprinkles and Nephi loved eating all the candy. The big kids were much more particular about where their things went and making patterns, but the little ones just thought it was marvelous to make a mess! Here's the finished project. How'd we do?
