Fun in the Cat Room

 This week, Gavin's class wrapped up their "Gingerbread Unit," which they started before Christmas.

The kids "acted" out the Gingerbread Baby, by Jan Brett.  Guess who played the lead role?

All the kids have little masks on, representing their roles.  Most of the other characters in the book tried to chase the Gingerbread Baby.  None of them caught him though!  Good thing Gavin loves to run.


When the book was done, we made ginger bread houses out of graham crackers, frosting, and candy.

Here is our house.  We made a valiant effort!  (This is harder than it looks!)

Here is the gingerbread house. All the kids LOVED it!

Gavin got a turn to play by the kitchen area:

Here is a short video of the Gingerbread Baby being chased.  Keep in mind, a whole bunch of the characters had to try to catch the Gingerbread Baby:
