First print out the free mouse themed printable on white cardstock paper. You need one printable per craft.
Next grab your crayons and color in the mouse however you like. We went with some pink in the center of the ears and a gray mouse body. You can of course, change that up if you like!
Now grab your scissors. Trim out the mouse pieces in the printable. Discard the excess paper. Set aside your mouse pieces.
Next up - grab your yellow cardstock and scissors. Since my son and I made this craft together, at the same time, I just cut my yellow cardstock in half {straight up the center!} This way we both got a piece of cheese, from ONE piece of paper.
Once we both had a "slice of the cheese" we cut it a bit to look like a triangle shaped wedge of cheese.
Then we both took a simple black crayon and drew in circular "holes" to give it even MORE of a look of cheese.
Finally - it was time to assemble it all! To finish off your Mouse and Cheese paper craft, simply staple {or glue} your mouse pieces to the cheese. This way it looks like the mouse is holding the cheese in his paws.
