Gingerbread Workshop two age classes offered

A great day to help YOU get ready for the holidays. Our Gingerbread workshop is always a fun event. Have Mom, Dad or even Grandma or Grandpa come with your younger child or children to our toddler/preschooler event from 10 - Noon. In those two hours they will enjoy one on one time in a Kindermusik type holiday class with instruments, singing and dance. Make a simple holiday craft and decorate a gingerbread cookie that Ms. Sandie baked herself! Enjoy some cider and sweets too.

For your older child ages 5 and up you can do the drop off class from 12:30 to 2:30. Finish up your shopping, wrapping or take some time for yourself! All of the same activities but designed for the older child. Holiday Songs, instrument play and dancing. Let's turn into a snowman! Do a holiday craft and decorate a gingerbread cookie that Miss Sandie baked herself! Enjoy some cider and sweets too.
