Have fun and good luck!

Usually, it is sugar cookie dough that is used for cut-out. Make from scratch, or buy from the store.

A lightly floured board is required for roll-out, and, I have also used powdered sugar for rolling out.

A mixture of the two wouldn't be bad either.

Oh, and shortbread can be cut too.

if they arent going to eat them,just flour and water made into a dough,you can still cook them
