We know it's Christmas at Mapleton School, when there are lost Gingerbread men being searched for.  Students decorated their gingerbread on Monday morning and by lunch the little rascals had already taken off!!!  They were here, there and every where.  This year students had a special friend from Hallmark, it was a talking Gingerbread ornament Holding a sign encouraging them to eat more candy canes. They all got a small candy cane the next day, then he told them they should eat "Christmas Carrots' mm, mm, so good. So they all got "Christmas Carrotts" for a snack. ( Even the gingerbread man is encouraging "Healthy Life Styles" ! The best comment he had was that he heard eating gingerbread would put them on Santa's Naughty list!  He was a spunky little character. Students had fun making wanted posters and writing apology letters too.  They were finally returned on Thursday by none other than "Ginger" our favorite life size Gingerbread man.  Here are pictures of the First Grade with him. Another year, another great hunt with a happy ending!
