Let's Begin!
Here is everything you will need:
1 - Gingerbread Man printable
1- white sheet of paper
1- brown sheet of paper
1- black sheet of paper
1- piece of aluminum foil
1 - gingerbread man cut out
ruler, pencil, crayons, a card (playing card), penny, bottle top and glue
1. The Oven
Fold the white paper, but not evenly, you need to leave room for the oven dials.
Mark the paper at 2 1/2 inches from the right side.
Draw a line to the top...
and cut.
2. The Oven Window
Using the card, trace around it on the aluminum foil and cut.
Glue the window on the front of the oven.
There is your window.
3. The oven door handle.
Measure 6 1/2 inches on the BLACK paper. You want a little extra because you need to fold each end.
Glue on your handle.
How cute is that?
4. The dials
Using the bottle top, trace circles on the BLACK paper and cut out. Using the penny, trace circles on the WHITE paper and cut out.
Glue the black dials on the top part of your oven.
Glue the white circles inside the black ones. We wrote "Off, H, M,L" on the dials.
Your oven is now done on the outside! We will get back to the "inside" in a moment. Time to make our Gingerbread Man!
5. The Gingerbread Man
Using the cutout of a gingerbread man, trace it on the BROWN paper and cut.
With the pencil and crayons, decorate your Gingerbread Man.
6. Inside the Oven
Cut out the filled in printable on the dotted lines.
Glue it to the inside of your oven. Make sure you have it even with the bottom, that way it won't show up over the top of the door.
Glue your Gingerbread Man where you would like to, but so he is peeking out, ready to jump!!
When you re-fold your oven,with the printable inside, if there is any excess hanging off either side, just trim it.
Voila! You have done it!
