While “gingerbread houses” might bring the holidays to mind, change up the name and this is a party activity you can use any time of the year! Pass out your premade graham cracker houses (find a great guide at Our Best Bites) and call it “Snack Shack Decorating,” “Candy Cottage Creations,” or “Mini Munchie Mansions.” Let the kids go wild with frosting and candy to decorate, and you’ve got a project that they will love to take home in winter, spring, summer or fall.
