Dec. 14, 2007 - Gingerbread Jamboree Field Trip
Listening to the story.
To the kitchen to learn how gingerbread was made long ago; she even showed them how the spices (nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves) were grated and ground.
Let's check the oven and see if the Gingerbread Man is ready to eat.
He's missing! Run, run as fast as you can and see if you can catch the Gingerbread Man!
Looks like he headed for the barn (the barn door was open).
The horse didn't catch him.
The cow didn't catch him.
The sheep didn't catch him
. 
Hmmmm...where could he be? Look! A footprint! We're on the right track!
After following footprints around and upstairs, we FOUND HIM!
After doing some gingerbread dances and having a gingerbread treat, we visited the Gingerbread House Exhibit. (The castles were our favorites.)
Simon...oh, Simon...who do you think you are, Hansel? Don't you know that nothing good every comes from eating gingerbread houses? (I just about had a nervous breakdown when I realized what happened...but what can you do?)

Oh my goodness, Ami! That field trip looks like a dream come true to me...as much as I love gingerbread men and those stories!! I've never heard of that down here...maybe next year we'll have to come up there and go with you. :)

Ami,
You are so creative and talented. I know school is fun at your house. I wish I knew how to make lapbooks like you do. We have been so blessed by the lapbooks you have made and shared on the website.
