Gingerbread houses

We finally made the time, the kids have been begging to make gingerbread houses, so I finally made the time today.  They wanted to make little houses for each of them, rather than one large house, so they each got their own.  It was a challenge to help each child get a standing house, while still encouraging them to do it themselves.

This is the Princess house, she did it mostly on her own, with the exception of the roof.... It is more than a little crooked.  She dumped a huge pixie stick on top to make snow when it was done.  It was at least creative.
This is Buddy's house, he went for simple, but I think that was because he had the least amount of Halloween Candy left.
This one is Munchkins, I helped her the most, but she loved telling me where to put the frosting, so she could place the candy.  She had the most variety of Halloween candy left, so she had a few more options.
