I need to tell about the gingerbread house from hansel and gretel for an asl project at school. I can’t find gingerbread anywhere. Other words that would also really help me to know are:
icing
peppermint (or mint)
candy cane
gumdrops
Thank you!

Gingerbread: there is no sign for “ginger”. You can fingerspell ginger and then sign bread. I would fingerspell the whole thing. ie: HOUSE-MADE-WHAT? G-I-N-G-E-R-B-R-E-A-D.
Icing: fingerspell and use CL to show how the house is decorated
Mint: fingerspell
Candy cane: sign candy and use CL to show a cane shape
Gumdrop: sign candy and use CL to show shape or fingerspell
Not sure what level class this is for, but the important thing is that you paint a picture of the house, showing where the candies are, etc. Don’t worry so much about the signs. Worry more about showing what the house looks like.
Was gonna answer, but LadyJane got it perfect!
