Gingerbread Adventures
Gingerbread carousels, train stations, nursery rhyme scenes, and oh yeah, there’s a house or two, too. Gingerbread Adventures, now through January 13th at the New York Botanical Garden, is the most whimsical collection of sugary confection your tots will ever lay their hungry eyes on. Top pastry chefs from around the city created the elaborate display. After they’re done drooling, your kids can learn about the ginger plant, make spice sachets, and decorate gingersnap cookies. All the ginger, cinnamon and clove wafting through air are sure to make the holiday season last just a little longer.
