Gingerbread Rocket

Last week for family home evening, we made a gingerbread rocket. This was largely because Coriel was determined that she needed to make a real rocket, and she was quite upset when I told her we couldn’t. Brice, ever brilliant, ever the peacemaker, came up with this solution instead.

I shall endeavor to add some videos as well, but given my lack of tech-savvy, I may not succeed. 

Constructing the rocket

With rocket flaps added

With gingerbread moon

With gingerbread man amputee (it's hard cutting tiny people out of gingerbread)

Now the moon has legs! (See vid for full explanation.)

Brice proving that you could, theoretically, make a
whole interlocking gingerbread construction

And now for the videos: Addra saying “apple juice” and showing off her cute hands. And the maiden voyage of the gingerbread rocket, blasting off to the moon.
