Gingerbread playdough is one of my favorite things in our classroom at Christmas time. It is made by simply adding cinnamon to the flour and salt before mixing in the water when you make your own playdough. The dough turns brown, and it smells sooooo good! As you can see in this photo, the children don't really roll out the dough and press the cookie cutters into it (in spite of the presence of rollers). They do just the opposite! They smash the dough into a cookie cutter and hope for the best. Just like in the picture we get some very thick cookies. Love it!Tuesday, December 9, 2008
