Gingerbread Men

Tommy sighed because he didn't really want to wait very much longer to tuck in to a gingerbread man, but when he found out that Bubbles was going to mix up some coloured icing, and pipe it on to the gingerbread men to look like eyes and buttons, he decided that he could perhaps, just this once, wait a little bit longer!

Bubbles carefully mixed up 3 small bowls of icing sugar and water, and then added a little bit of different food colouring to each.

So he ended up with some red, some yellow, and some blue. He carefully piped the icing onto the gingerbread men, trying to be as neat as possible. When he had finished, he invited the other bears to try them.

"Yum, yum!" they all said. "What lovely gingerbread men." And it didn't take very long for quite a few of the biscuits to disappear.
