This month at Little Railers Preschool, we are focusing on the book “The Gingerbread Man”. We transformed our dramatic play center into a bakery, and our morning class is “frosting” cookies they made out of clay with a mixture of paint and glue to add to our baked goods. They even added sprinkles (died rice) to their cookies! #growinglearners
