Christmas Traditions: How to Host a DIY Gingerbread House Decorating Party by Katie Lewis

Celebrate the holiday season with a kid-friendly gingerbread house decorating party. Here's how to have the best party on the block:

• Make a fun banner. Hang it above your dessert table (use a printable).

• Have the gingerbread houses built in advance using hot glue to ensure they don't fall apart when kids start decorating them.

• Have plenty of icing pre-prepared and ready to go in squirt bottles or frosting cones.

• Make gingerbread cookies. Have kids decorate them in a typical fashion with cinnamon candies baked on and royal icing.

• Create a dessert buffet that showcases the colors and flavors of the season.

• Fill bowls with a variety of candies so your guests can decorate their gingerbread houses. Provide a variety of shapes, colors and textures.

• Offer prizes for the most creative designs, and have festive fun with family and friends!
