Build your own gingerbread house? Winter holiday traditions don’t get much more fun than this.

With a few grown up helpers and lots of construction components, all the gear like gingerbread walls and icing to keep it together, lots of sweet fixtures as the houses took shape and glowed for everybody.

Of course, everybody needed something to keep them going, so freshly made tea sandwiches, cakes, cookies and a festive fruity mocktail were ready to help keep the busy builders fed and happy.
