Gingerbread Baby Lapbook Printables
Thanks so much for stopping by my site and downloading this file. I hope that
you and your child have MUCH fun together using this free resource! You can
find all of my files and links for this unit on this webpage:
http://homeschoolcreations.com/GingerbreadBabyPrintables.html
NOTE: Additional printables were added to the Gingerbread Baby webpage in
December 2011, so be sure to visit the link above and download the additional
pages if you haven’t already!
This pack contains early learning printables to use with your child when reading
the book Gingerbread Baby by Jan Brett. The first half of the kit focuses on skills
for younger children and the second includes pages for more advanced pre-
schoolers or kindergarteners. I would highly recommend printing the activities
from this set onto cardstock so that they are sturdier for younger hands.
If you would like to share, please share a link to my blog or to the page that
hosts these files. Please do not link directly to just the PDF files (the link you are
at now). Please feel free to print this pdf file for your own personal use. They
were created for private and non-profit use. Please do not sell or host these files
anywhere else.

What happened in the story? My favorite part of the book was...
Use the top section for your child to practice writing his/her name and add to the
front of the lapbook. Depending on the book that you use for your gingerbread
unit, have your child summarize the book and record what they tell you. Add the
mini ‘book report’ to the front of your lapbook.

Animals in the Book
When we read a story, we look to see what animals are in the book. These animals are from the book Gingerbread Baby by Jan Brett. The cards are lami-nated and then put on a jump ring so we can flip through the cards and review the animals in the weeks and months that follow.
