Girl Pressing a Gumdrop onto a Gingerbread House

Coloring guide
At a kitchen table, a smiling girl in an apron and ponytail leans over to press a gumdrop onto the roof of a little gingerbread house. The house has scalloped icing on the roof, a round swirl candy in the gable, an arched door, two paned windows, and rows of round candies along the edges. The table also holds three bowls of candies and gumdrops, and a piping bag lies near the front. She's standing on a small step stool, and behind her a window and a utensil holder sit on the counter. Brown for the roof and red and white stripes for the swirl candy would look good, and the gumdrops can be any colors you like. It's a free printable that suits holiday baking days, with big shapes for younger kids and enough to do for more confident colorers. Fans of Gingerbread House coloring pages often like Thanksgiving and New Year as well.
