The Gingerbread Man review and giveaway

Posted on January 22, 2012February 24, 2025 by jenny

*****Giveaway is now closed and the winner is Helen*****

You probably won’t be surprised to hear that I’m a huge fan of the The Gingerbread Man story. I have a couple of versions of the story but recently came across a beautifully illustrated version from Child’s Play which brings the classic fairy tale up to date. The book contains lots of lift up flaps so you can get really involved in seeing how the story unfolds. I never tire of reading this story to my children and my son loves reading it with me.

What could be better to accompany the story than your very own soft toy version of the Gingerbread Man and Fox so you can act out the story? The book and soft toys, from Teddykompaniet, are great for little hands and all three are available from Grand Baby, who sell a range of traditional and original baby and child products sourced from quality suppliers.

Giveaway: The Gingerbread Man review and giveaway

Grand Baby have kindly offered one copy of The Gingerbread Man book, a small Gingerbread Man soft toy and the Fox soft toy to giveaway to one reader of the gingerbread house.

To enter

Simply ‘like’ Grand Baby on Facebook and leave me a comment letting me know.

For an extra entry share this giveaway with your your friends by using the Retweet button below. Don’t forget to leave me a comment letting me know you have done this!

The giveaway will end at midnight on the 30th January. The winner will be chosen randomly and contacted using the email address or twitter name provided. If the winner does not reply within 3 days the competition will be redrawn. UK only. Please note the winners details will be passed to Grand Baby who is responsible for sending out the prize. Good luck!

    we would absolutely adore these stuffed toys to enhance the story, i bought my 3yr old daughter a pack of 12 classic childrens stories for christmas and 1 was the gingerbread man we read it on christmas day and have done so EVERY NIGHT since, she loves it we always have 2 or 3 stories so she does read the others as well just not as often as the gingerbread man.
