This Gingerbread Investigation is a hands-on way for preschoolers to observe and explore a gingerbread cookie!
Children can draw what their gingerbread looks like, see what happens when it is placed in water, and measure its height with cubes. The recording pages also invite them to describe how the cookie feels, count its arms and legs, and share their thoughts during a taste test.

- Print the recording page you’d like to use.

- Invite children to complete the investigation and record their observations on the page.
What is included:
- Gingerbread investigation recording pages
