deeper sleep, still hearing the sweet melody of the gingerbread

men's song. The dream had felt so real, and he could almost

taste the gingerbread. He stretched and yawned, feeling a sense

of happiness and wonder.

From that day on, every time Stevie saw a gingerbread cookie, he

would remember his magical adventure and the friends he made in

his dream. And every night, as he curled up to sleep, he hoped

to visit the land of gingerbread men once more.

Gingerbread Boy / Girl

I’m a little gingerbread boy. (Boys bow.)

I’m a little gingerbread girl. (Girls bow.)

I can jump, (All jump.)

And I can twirl. (All turn around.)

I have raisins (Point to eyes.)

For my eyes,

And bright red buttons (Point to buttons down chest.)

Just this size.

I have a mouth,

It looks like this. (Point to smiling mouth.)

I can even

Blow a kiss. (Blow a kiss.)

I’m warm and tasty,

But don’t eat me. (Shake head.)

Hang me on

Your Christmas tree! (Put hands over head.)
