Download the Cat in the Hat template, print, and cut out the pieces you need.

Begin to make the cat by gluing the face to the middle of the gingerbread's head.

Take the belly and glue it to the torso.

Place the bowtie at the bottom of the head, where the neck is, and glue it in place.

Make the hat by gluing the three red stripes onto the main piece. Cut off any paper that hangs off the sides.

Next, glue the base of the hat to the main part of the hat.

Take the completed hat and glue it to the top of the gingerbread man's face.

Optionally, finish off the gingerbread man by using the white gel marker to make icing patterns at the end of the arms and legs.
