Martin & Sylvia: Saturdays! Printable Project Page: Mouse House
In the Martin & Sylvia: Saturdays! story, “Mouse House,” it is cold outside. Sylvia wants to make sure the wood mice that live in the forest near her home are warm and fed. She collects dried grass and bark and other soft natural materials and makes little mouse houses next to stumps and big rocks.
You can collect similar materials to make your own mouse houses. But remember what Momma says - once you build them, no peeking!
