The kids and I got really inspired this week, and we are happy to share with you Part 1 of The Nutcracker Paper Doll Set.  We will be sending Part 2 next week, so after you color these and cut them out (while listening to The Dance of the Sugarplum Fairies, of course!), save them so you can add to your story-play next week.

Paloma, age 6, has created a complete set of dolls that we are sharing this week.  I think you will especially love her sinister Mouse King.  Next week we will be sending dolls from Kells and Rosie.

Why not try making your own version of The Nutcracker?  Creating your own paper dolls is easy and lots of fun!

Sending Christmas joy to all of you.  Isn’t it a wonderful time of the year?

Love from The Paper Doll Club,

Mackenzie, Rosie, Paloma, and sometimes Kells
