From the book, each mouse has a name, a personality and some clues to help us find each one. There are nine mice to find and we started at one end of Main street by the Hyatt. AG has her hand on each mouse in the pictures. But here is a close up picture of what the mice look like. They are small...about the actual size of a mouse.
She was so thrilled to find each one!!
Here is how we found them...
Clue #1 - Marvin - He loves to read and is reading a book by the fountain.
This tells how the "Mice on Main" originated.
Clue #2 - Maggie (mom) - She sits across from Marvin on top of the concrete post, so she can see him reading and look down the street to see her babies.
Clue #3 - Marvin Jr - He loves poetry, so he sits at the top of the stairs where poets gather and coffee brews.
Clue #4 - Marcley - He loves people music and dancing, and sits near Bergamo Square where he can mingle with the crowds and move and groove to the latest sounds.
Clue #5 - Teeny Tiny Millie - She sits up high near a high-tech location. So the smallest mouse is now the tallest!
Clue #6 - Mitch - Sits near the bank alley where he can ride his skateboard.
Clue #7 - Melissa - She's in shape and loves healthy food, so she sits near the health food store.
Clue #8 - Aunt Mifflin - She loves money, so she sits near one of the oldest banks in town. She looks to the left to smell the flowers.
Clue #9 - Uncle Miles - Sits by the rain spout near the Italian restaurant.
After we found the mice, we celebrated with gelato at Luna Rosa Cafe on Washington street and then took a walk to Falls Park. Greenville has grown and turned into such a pretty city. So many people were out and walking around, walking their dogs, riding bikes, eating, looking for mice...such a fun day! We really enjoyed our time there!
