another idea for gingerbread men By Jayne

I am not able to host any gingerbread people this year; although, it is a cute idea. I just thought I would add another idea a long-time teacher just shared with me. After her children's gingerbread people ran away, she| had them send out a notice to all the other rooms in the building to be on the look out for them. Then each child built a trap to catch their man. While the traps were being made, word would trickle in from other places that Jason's man had been seen in the library but they couldn't catch him, and Lucy's woman was seen near the art room, etc. When the traps were finished, the children | | set them before they left at the end of the day near where their person was sighted. The next morning all the traps were full! Traps were made out of tp tubes, margarine tops and tubs, pipe cleaners, construction paper, straws, etc. - whatever was available, and spare gingerbread men were available to test it on. Notes were then sent thanking all who help find them and reporting on the happy ending. Great fun and lots of good learning.
