Christmas Mouse Ears

Printable Mouse Ears for the Nutcracker Ballet or Halloween costume

Get ready for the Nutcracker Ballet with these Christmas Mouse Ears. Boys and Girls both will enjoy watching the Nutcracker Ballet and pretending they are one of the mice scampering around the stage. This project is also good for studios that are presenting this holiday favorite to audiences via zoom.

Trivia:
