For the Flannel Friday Holiday Extravaganza I created a flannel to go with Mouse’s First Christmas. I read it like a mystery, keeping the book in my lap and reading the two adjectives, having the children guess what Mouse found. I also use my Mouse puppet, which the children love! I made enough for each child to have a piece of the story and have them come up with their pieces when they correctly guess the item that Mouse found.
