My girls have been loving all the Ellen Walsh's books, especially Mouse Count. So, to help aid them in their recalling, I made them some story-props...a snake, 10 mice, and a rock! And, of course there's a collecting jar!
This little fella was made from one sock (my husband's) and felt for details. 
I quickly sewed the 10 little mice together.
Hours of fun!
This is so awesome. You have some great ideas. Thanks so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun creative idea! I think I have the sewing skills to make the sock. LOL! Seems like they had lots of fun and learned something too. I am a new follower from ABC and 123. Vicky from Mess For Less

Stopping by from the Sunday Showcase Linky Party!
ReplyDeleteReally like your idea for your Mouse Count extensions with the felt mice and snake! A group of my friends get together once a month to make fun felt items or other such crafts. There are several moms with little ones who will love this felt activity!
I also pinned your idea and listed your blog name on the pin to Pinterest.
Our entries for Sunday Showcase are Nature Walk and Mad for Matisse!
Hope that you will pop by to see my blog, Sunrise Learning Lab.

I already have been following you...I just normally don't make many comments but do stop by to see the neat things you are doing.
Have a great day!
