We made sequin gingerbread and they turned out so cute!! This is really a great project to work on fine motor skills. We made them after we read "Gingerbread Baby" by Jan Brett and now we have a wall filled with gingerbread babies. If you are not familiar with the story I found a video of the book being narrated here.
To make the sequin gingerbread I made a gingerbread pattern and printed it on cardstock paper. I traced the pattern onto a sheet of brown cardstock paper and cut the gingerbread shape out (older children can cut the pattern themselves).
The children glued wiggles eyes on and drew a smile with a marker. They then applied glue drops to the body of the gingerbread and pressed sequins on the glue drops.
