There’s only so many things you can come up with to keep a 2 year old occupied while being snowed in for a couple days. I bought a gingerbread house a couple weeks ago with the intentions of decorating it last week. We ended up taking a long nap that day instead so it was the perfect project for a cold, snowy day! Ella is very determined these days to do EVERYTHING by “me self!” So, she had to put the “ornaments” on the house all by herself too! A few of the “ornaments” ended up in her mouth before they made it onto the gingerbread house roof…I think she was going for a “weathered-look!”
On Sunday, Ella went to stay with Mimi & Paw-Paw for a couple hours while we finished wrapping presents. When I went to pick her up, she was so excited about the gingerbread train they put together! She said it was “Thomas!” She’s asked me several times if we can decorate another “gingerbread.”
By the way, they should put a disclosure on the box that says…unless you are a cake decorating professional, your house/train will NEVER look like the example on the box :)
