Ring in the holidays with a visit to a magical storybook realm filled with fanciful gingerbread houses, candy canes, gum drops and other sugary confections. Gingerbread houses created for the Museums’ first annual Gingerbread House competition by professional bakers and individual adults and children are displayed against a snowy landscape filled with decorated trees, twinkling lights and gingerbread people. Inspired by the theme “The City of Homes,” the Gingerbread Houses resemble actual buildings from different eras found throughout Springfield.The exhibit also traces the adventures of a gingerbread man who is being pursued by creatures of the forest who want to eat him up. Along the way he stops at his own gingerbread house to sip a cup of hot chocolate by the fire, travels down a river of melted fudge and gets lost in a field of licorice sticks. Find out if the gingerbread man escapes from his furry foes in this tantalizing and fun-filled holiday display.http://www.springfieldmuseums.org/the_museums/science/exhibits/view/179-sugar_spice_the_land_of_gingerbread
