A gingerbread man is a cookie that is made to look like a little person. He's made from a special dough that has warm spices like cinnamon and ginger in it, which gives him his name. When you eat a gingerbread man, you might taste a little bit of that warm, spicy flavor.
A gingerbread man is shaped like a person with two arms, two legs, and a head. He's usually standing up straight, like he's ready to walk or dance.
After the cookie is baked, it's decorated with icing or candy. He might have eyes, a mouth, and buttons on his shirt made from icing or small candies.
Did you know there's a fun story about a gingerbread man who comes to life and runs away? He's so quick that he can outsmart everyone who tries to catch him. He's famous for saying, "Run, run, as fast as you can. You can't catch me, I'm the gingerbread man!"
Many families like to make gingerbread men together during special times of the year, like Christmas. It's a fun activity where you can decorate your own gingerbread man and make him unique.
