Download the mouse template and cut out the pieces. We suggest printing the mouse body and eyes on plain computer paper, not cardstock. It’s much easier to wrap the thin paper around the toilet paper roll.

Glue the eyes just above the mouse’s nose, one on either side.

Place the white belly below the mouth and glue in place. Use scissors to trim off any excess paper that goes off of the cardboard tube.

Use glue or tape to secure the mouse’s body to the toilet paper roll.

Glue the pink inner ear to the gray outer ear. We find it easiest to smash the tubes slightly in order to make them flatter before moving on to the next step.

Take the completed ears and glue them to the top of the cardboard tube. We prefer to use a glue dot for each ear since they’re strong and there’s no drying time.
