A small group of young children stand closely together in a classroom, looking down at and examining a small piece of paper or card while collaborating and sharing attention.

The gingerbread man visited Mrs. Manley's 3-year-old preschool class. He left notes for the students, created a map of the classroom, and had the students find him, hid candy canes around the classroom, brought the students a book to read, and left a gingerbread house toy to build. The students had fun looking for him and his notes each day.
