Gingerbread Kits
Thinkery’s Gingerbread kits are an Austin holiday tradition!
Explore art and engineering at home with our Gingerbread kits!
December means “Gingerbread Season” at Thinkery. This year, we’ve teamed up once again with our friends at Lady Quackenbush’s Cakery to create a selection of Gingerbread kits you can build and decorate at home!
We’ll have three different kits to choose from this season, perfect for creative little builders of all ages and abilities: a People Decorating Kit for all-ages fun, a full Gingerbread House Building kit for builders age 4+, and a brand-new Cookie Construction Kit for builders ages 6 and up!
Kits are no longer available for preorder through our Online Store , but may be purchased in-person at Thinkery while supplies last!
