Gingerbread House Contest Rules & Information

​

Parents can help as "consultants & supervisors".  80% of the work has to be done by students.

​

Your house must fit on the plate it came on.

​

Houses must be made out of graham crackers.

​

You may use additional supplies from home but you must use at least 75% of supplies you were given.

​

If you need more frosting (to use as glue) or as paint (for different colors) simply mix powdered sugar, water & food coloring until you get the desired consistency.  Use a ziploc bag for piping (or buy canned frosting).

​

Categories & Prizes:

Grand Prize:  $30.00

2nd Place:  $20.00
3rd Place: $10.00

Best "traditional" gingerbread house: $20.00

Most Original:  $20.00

​

Pictures must be submitted by midnight on Thanksgiving.

​

I will post a collage of all of the submissions and assign each house a number (houses will remain anonymous) by Friday night.  Voting ends on Saturday at Midnight.

​

You will vote via the webpage by submitting the picture number for your top 3 houses, most original & best traditional.  You may only vote once.
