Each player starts with a plain gingerbread man and takes turns to rolling a dice.
The first one to finish decorating their gingerbread man wins.
Your gingerbread man is complete when they have:
- A face
- A scarf or bow-tie
- A hat
- Buttons
Do I Need A Dice To Play?
The free printable pack contains a paper dice that you can cut out and make if you do not have a dice at home. However from experience if you do have a normal dice these are a lot easier to use and obviously require less preparation.
Is There Anything Else I Can Use This Printable For?
Yes! The gingerbread man printable that’s included would make a great playdough mat too!
Just pop it in a self laminating sheet and use playdough to make your gingerbread man’s features.
