Haunted Gingerbread Houses

We rarely have time, with all the activities in December, to make gingerbread houses. They are such fun, though! Last year, as January rolled around and we’d missed out again, we decided that this year, we’d make gingerbread haunted houses for Halloween. I figured we’d end up doing the graham cracker house thing, but I was surprised (and grateful) to find haunted gingerbread house kits at the store! (Okay, they were haunted chocolate houses…)  They were a little pricey, but with time and health issues last week, they worked out just fine.

Here are the houses my kids made:

Haunted gingerbread (chocolate) houses for Halloween

They were a lot of fun, and I think this year I will pick up a gingerbread house pan on clearance after the holidays for next year’s October fun!
