Children of all ages can participate in this fun, winter activity. See the special note below from Mr. Bread and let's help him out:
 
My name is Mr. Bread, first name Ginger. I am asking for your help this year as the
holiday season is approaching, and I would like to make it through the season withoutbeing served on someone's cookie plate! I have decided that the best way to do this is to disguise myself.
 
Can you please help me by designing the perfect costume that I can wear during the
holiday season?
 
Dress me up in a unique disguise so that people don't know that I am actually a
yummy gingerbread man!

 

 

Mr. Bread directions and blank gingerbread man worksheet can be picked up at the Main Library (449 Halsey Road, Parsippany) beginning on Monday, December 7 while supplies last.  No registration required.
