Location: In the Everett Children's Adventure Garden
Step into Gingerbread Town, a fun and whimsical backdrop where gingerbread people are hard at work and play, delivering mail, making music, and generally amusing visitors. Pop inside the larger-than-life model of a Gingerbread House decorated with frosting and festooned with candy and treats.
Smell, touch, and taste the spices and other plant parts that make up a classic gingerbread recipe. Discover where cinnamon and ginger come from. Grind spices, plant wheat seeds to take home, eat gingersnap cookies, and record it all in a festively decorated field notebook.
