Rainey A: A Gingerbread Kind of Day

Picture



​Last week, while thumbing through
The Children's Step by Step Cookbook, Lochie and George suggested that “we should make gingerbread men in class!” because “we’re bored of not baking”. After checking to make sure we had all the right ingredients yesterday, today we set out to bake.

We mixed the molasses, ginger, flour, eggs and baking soda together with helpful suggestions from CC who joined us on Zoom. ​

​It’s getting so hard to stir!
- Lochie
I know you’re strong, you can do it- Jack 
Yeah, look at my muscles. I’m strong!- George

​
After we stirred it as much as we could, we let it set in the refrigerator while we were on the playground. When we came back to it, it was perfect for flattening and shaping with our hands! We chose not to use cookie cutters, but instead build with it since, as Marley pointed out, “it’s like clay”.

I hope our gingerbread man doesn’t run away.  - George

We thoroughly enjoyed our cookie creations out on the steps before pick up. Its certainly something we will have to do again! Especially “because CC didn’t get to do it with us” as George pointed out. Check below for some pictures from our time outside. We’re looking forward to all kinds of future baking projects!
