Gingerbread Grandma's Cauldron
Food, fun and fantasy for families...
These pages are designed to provide fun, family-oriented activities for Pagan parents and their children.

Everyone knows the story of the two young children who, being abandoned in the forest by their parents, found a house made of gingerbread. When they began eating the house, an old woman came out and invited them to come inside.

In most versions of the story, the old woman is depicted as a wicked witch who wishes to eat the children after turning them into gingerbread.

Now, perhaps, somewhere there are people who want to turn little children into something they were never meant to be, but it certainly isn't here!

In Grandma's Cauldron you will find a tasty mix of crafts, recipes and activities which you can use to help your children avoid becoming "cookie cutter" copies of their friends and classmates. The activities here are designed to stimulate your child's curiosity, build every child's self-esteem and strengthen family bonds.

Be sure to check out out newly updated Puppet Workshop and our Everyday Magic pages for arts and crafts ideas you can do with your family.
