PRINTABLE GINGERBREAD MAN CARDS

As the year winds down, Henry and Maira have been hungry for projects to do after school. With my own pile of Christmas cards to fill out and address, I decided to make them their own customizable gingerbread man cards. I drew the outline of a gingerbread man with a scarf, then printed them, along with a Merry Christmas message, on card stock. The kids drew eyes, mouths, mittens, boots, and other accessories on the gingerbread men before inscribing the cards. They were a hit.

"Look at the Christmas card Mama made me!" Henry said. "She's a graphic designer."
