Get ready for a fun and festive winter challenge! This year, 4-H members can choose between two creative categories or enter both!
Gingerbread House Challenge
Build your own gingerbread-style creation using anything you want.
You can use:
Craft supplies
A store-bought gingerbread kit
Cardboard or paperboard
Graham crackers
Recyclables
Repurpose an old dollhouse or birdhouse
Your “house” can be shaped like a cabin, barn, salon, castle, football stadium, or any structure you dream up!

Toilet Tube Gingerbread House Challenge
Create a winter or holiday ornament using a toilet paper roll as the main base. Decorate it however you want — the design is completely up to you!

Entries will be judged in two separate categories:
- Gingerbread House
- Toilet Tube Gingerbread House

Judging Criteria
- Creativity
- Neatness
- How well it resembles a gingerbread-style design
Submit a photo of your creation by January 31st to Bianca Mullen at chesang@wisc.edu
We can’t wait to see your amazing winter creations! ❄️
