We love that story and my kids have been discovering her other books. All very fun, they love to look at the pictures even as old as they are getting.
Visiting from Show and Tell...my son just loves gingerbread things. I love your gingerbread activities. I printed out the matching game to play with!
Love the matching cards. :) And the counting too! Just subscribed to your blog by mail so I don't miss a thing in future! ;)
