While I can not get a picture to you by Friday a great idea my then 4
and 9 year old came up with for 12th Night, A Gingerbread Castle. Using
the same recipe as for Ginger bread house, you know the ones done at
christmas time, my 9 year old designed the walls complete with turrets
and critalins, draw bridge done with string and toothpicks and Many Many
Knights and Ladies (very tiny teddy bears in Gingerbread, the 1.5"
cookie cutter ones) in a formation on either side of the gate, with the
Prince and Princess (bears dressed in icing) processing do greet them
all. Went over very well and the kids had a ball building it. 

(ISP will not send pictures or I would send you the scanned copy of it,
sorry)
