Learning About the Ginger Plant
When we think of ginger, we often picture the knobby rhizome sold in grocery stores. Our botanical ginger pages show how this tropical plant actually grows. The underground stems sprout tall green shoots and long, narrow leaves that thrive in warm climates. You can use these sheets in the classroom to teach students about edible roots and spices. Children can color the scenes of harvesting the root, grating it for recipes, or brewing a warm cup of ginger tea with lemon.
Coloring Gingerbread Treats
The word ginger also brings to mind the warm spices used in winter baking. The gingerbread house and cookie designs offer plenty of small details for older children and adults to color. You can experiment with different shades of brown for the baked dough, and use bright reds, greens, and pinks for the royal icing and candy decorations.
- Use tan and light brown colored pencils to give the baked gingerbread men a textured, realistic look.
- Add bright peppermint stripes to the candy canes on the cozy winter cottages.
- Leave the snowy roofs and frosting drips blank, or shade them with a very light blue to make the white stand out.
Options for Different Skill Levels
This collection includes simple outlines of cute cartoon ginger roots and cheerful cookies that work well for younger kids developing their motor skills. For adults and older students, the detailed mandala patterns and complex winter villages provide a longer, more focused coloring activity. You can pair these sheets with a holiday lesson or a unit on culinary herbs and spices.
