I thought they would make a fun book club. AND Then I found http://www.janbrett.com/ and couldn't help myself. We sent out formal invitations.After the guests arrived, Hyrum welcomed them and conducted the first order of business: deciding on a name. They chose THE BOOK SHARKS. We played "There's a candy in my hand." We read Gingerbread Baby, talked about it, and acted it out. Then we read Gingerbread Friends, talked about it and then we put the pictures I had taped around the room in the right sequence. 
Gift boxes under the tree for their goodies (Gingerbread cookies, bookmark, placemat, & cute recipe card).
Masks for Gingerbread Baby re-enactment, and a board game.
Hyrum spent all week coloring Gingerbread Friends:
It was SO much fun. For me. I think the kids had a good time too.
