Well I've been watching the food network this year and I was inspired to give this a go. I started with a kit of course (sorry if that angers some of you ginger breaders) It was truly enjoyable maybe next year I'll try a real one? So I thought I'd surf some net and see whats out there.
Don't feel bad about using a gingerbread kit! It's terrific to build a gingerbread house... ESPECIALLY with your kids, no matter HOW you choose to do it. The memories you're building with your son are what matters most!

Time with kids,, priceless by: Jeff
The kit is a great way to start, that's how I did. And believe me when I say, it's a lot of work to make the whole thing from scratch.
The time spent with your kid can't be replaced, and a kit is quality time.
Great Job!

OK now you have conquered the most challenging part - the decorating - now you HAVE to do it the "traditional" way, from scratch - and good luck! Well done!
