To make your own, just print the activity page, colour in the pieces, cut them out, and glue them together to create your very own gingerbread masterpiece.

I had my little boy test these out with me on the weekend. We had so much fun making them. It's a great activity to do with younger kids.

Want to add some extra flair? Try decorating the gingerbread man with some icing patterns using glitter glue or mini pom poms as buttons. You can even stick your finished creation onto some cardstock to make a holiday decoration or greeting card.

I love to use this sort of craft as gift tags. They always make a simple gift look extra special.

Fun Ways to Use Your Gingerbread Man.

Here are a few different ways to use your gingerbread man once it’s complete:

  • Make a Holiday Card: Glue your finished gingerbread man to the front of a blank card and add a festive message. Perfect for sharing holiday cheer with friends and family.

  • Create a Winter Scene: Place your gingerbread man on construction paper, surrounded by snowflakes, candy canes, or even a gingerbread house.

  • Decorate Your Home: Stick your gingerbread man on the fridge, hang it on the tree, or make a garland of gingerbread friends to string across the room.

  • Classroom Displays: Teachers, this is a great craft for classroom decor. Let each student create their own gingerbread person that can be pinned to bulletin boards.
