• Cut thin disks out of 2 to 3 baby carrots, then cut each one in half, and then cut them in half again, to give you 4 small wedges from each baby carrot disk (for the mouse ears).
• Use 2 small wedges on each mouse, to create 2 ears for the mouse, repeat until they all have 2 ears, (pictured).
• Using the remaining baby carrots, slice 36 thin (lengthwise) strips, to use for the mice tails. Insert the tails firmly into the back of each mouse treat. Using a toothpick, insert two holes for the mouse eyes.
