THE GINGERBREAD MAN LOOSE AT CHRISTMAS
The Gingerbread Man Loose at Christmas, has our favorite Gingerbread Man working on a gift for someone special with kids in the class. This is a great Christmas read aloud that doesn't focus on expensive gifts or what the children hope to receive. It is about the simple things they can give to those around them as signs of appreciation and performing random acts of kindness.

The holiday season is the perfect time to spread thanks and perform random acts of kindness to those who help in the community. The children in the class are busy making special treats and cards, and practicing holiday songs to share! They make their way around town to deliver their gifts to various community helpers. The Gingerbread Man comes along, but faces some unexpected problems. Gingerbread and snow are not a good mix, and he begins to fall apart! Thankfully the baker in town can fix him up again, and the Gingerbread Man manages to deliver his special gift.
