Gingerbread Adventures at the NY Botanical Garden's Everett Children's Adventure Garden in the Bronx
The Everett Children's Adventure Garden
November 21, 2010 - January 2, 2011
Everett Children’s Adventure Garden
Outdoor Galleries and Gingerbread Houses are open for exploration during regular garden hours.
Guided Gingerbread Activities take place:
Tuesdays - Fridays; 1:30 - 5:30 pm
Saturdays and Sundays (except for November 20 & 21, 10 am - 5:30 pm) and extended hours days; 10 am - 6:30 pm 

This "sense-sational" and magical holiday adventure beckons kids to smell, touch, and taste the spices and other plant parts that make up a gingerbread recipe. They'll discover that cinnamon comes from the bark of a tree, ginger root from an underground stem, and cloves from the bud of a clove tree. They can also grind spices, make spicy sachets and ornaments, and decorate gingersnap cookies.

New this year are the Winter Wonderland of Gingerbread Houses in the Bendheim Global Greenhouse and a tie-in to the popular children's story The Gingerbread Man. There's also a display of drawings of magnified spices, and kids can use microscopes to examine spices for their own botanical illustrations.
