Pilgrim Mouse Craft
This pilgrim mouse craft is a fun and easy color, cut, and paste craft that turns simple printed pieces into a hands-on project kids can really make their own. Using a cardboard tube, the craft becomes three-dimensional which is perfect for decorating a room, collecting on a shelf, or even imaginative play. Part of the fun is seeing how each child personalizes their creation, experimenting with colors, textures, and details, and then enjoying it as a lasting part of their space or playtime.
