Christmas Craft

Bring The Gingerbread Man to life with two creative paper crafts for EYFS and KS1! Children can make their own gingerbread man squishy and build a paper gingerbread house—ideal for traditional tales, Christmas craft sessions and creative provision.

Children colour, fill and seal their gingerbread man to create a paper squishy, then practise cutting, folding and joining as they construct their gingerbread house.

What’s included:

• Gingerbread man squishy templates
• Paper gingerbread house templates, including walls and roof
• Craft instructions and teacher guidance

These activities offer opportunities to develop fine motor skills, follow instructions and talk about designs. The finished crafts can also inspire storytelling, imaginative play and a cheerful classroom display.

Suitable for adult-supported small groups, craft afternoons or activities linked to The Gingerbread Man.

Please note: this is a printable resource. Paper, colouring materials, stuffing, tape and glue are needed to complete the crafts.
