At Forest School, we retold the story of ‘The Gingerbread Man’, the children were all given a character and a part to act out in the story, they loved saying the repeated phrase ‘Run, run as fast as you can, you can’t catch me I’m the Gingerbread Man’.
The children decorated a Gingerbread Man made out of cardboard, using dried leaves and flowers – when the children scrunched up the leaves they listened to the sounds they made, they liked how the leaves felt lightly, crumbling through their fingers.
