Answer 1

Instructions

* STEP 1: Choose candies with holes to string ribbon through or soft candy you can poke a plastic needle through. You can use wrapped candies and tie them to the ribbon with small pieces of ribbon.
* STEP 2: Cut a piece of thin ribbon long enough to slip easily over child's head after it is tied.
* STEP 3: Thread ribbon onto a plastic needle (which is safer for little ones).
* STEP 4: Have different candies in small bowls within easy reach of each child. You may have to make a couple of bowls of each candy to go around the table.
* STEP 5: Be ready to help with small problems or let older children help the younger ones. This way they get to make a necklace and still look cool.
* STEP 6: When the necklace is full, tie ends of ribbon together and tie a gingerbread cookie to the middle of the necklace.

Tips & Warnings

* Wrap cookies in colorful plastic wrap and curling ribbon.
* Plastic needles are safer for kids, but small children will still need adult supervision using the needle.
