Gingerbread House Competition

Host a Gingerbread House Contest

Purchase or request donations of gingerbread house kits and invite families from the community to your church for a festive building event. Participants will work together to create unique and creative gingerbread houses, and prizes can be awarded for categories like most creative, best use of candy, or most traditional. Encourage a fun, light-hearted atmosphere with Christmas music, hot chocolate, and snacks for participants.

A Gingerbread House Contest promotes family togetherness and festive fun while fostering creativity. It’s a great opportunity for the church to engage with the community in a relaxed, enjoyable setting during the holiday season.
