Easy ways to decorate biscuits/gingerbread men?

Hello,
My 5 yo wants to decorate gingerbread men and is talking about multiple colours and designs and what seems to me like faffy stuff!

In the past I have done icing pens and sweets or smarties for decor or used glace icing or buttercream but I really am not up to faffing about with icing bags. Icing pens have been weirdly flavoured in the past but I haven’t bought them recently.

Not sure if royal icing is easier to work with and something he can get on with by himself?
Can anyone give me easy ideas pls? Thank you!

Icing sugar, different food colours and some sprinkles. Be very sparing when adding liquid, it goes solid to watery very quickly and you don't need much sugar to create quite a lot of icing. Messy but fun.
