Mouse the Littlest Elf is a little bit afraid

The actor elves are excited about this year’s Christmas show.  They have been working on their lines and costumes for weeks.  I am sure the show will be a huge hit!

But there was a “little” problem…

Keep reading to find out what it is!

This year is a first for Mouse the Littlest Elf.  She has a speaking part in the show.  She has been so excited.

Now that the show is getting closer, she is feeling a bit nervous.  The thought of getting up in front of the entire North Pole has her wanting to crawl back into bed.  What if she forgets her lines?  What if she messes up?  And what if people laugh at her?

She was so afraid of not doing well that she thought she might quit the show.  Someone else could play her part.  She would help with lighting again this year instead.

The other actor elves would not let her quit.  They insisted that she stick with it.  She has a fun part and they know she can do a great job.

Mouse the Littlest Elf Does Not Quit, Ever

Well, Mouse decided she would keep trying.  She was NOT going to quit.  She practiced and practiced her lines.

Today, when rehearsals started, she performed perfectly!   There was no reason to be afraid about making mistakes any more.  She knows her lines by heart.  No more nerves!

Now she is just really excited and thankful she hadn’t quit. She can’t wait until show time so she can be part of the big night!

Merry Christmas!

Santa Claus

  2. In matter of infact it was today! In my 5th grade class we had to do a report on a story and I had to do all the work! We had to represent or projects and guess who had to do it.. Me so my group I was working in was laughing cause I was nerveos it made me very upset

  3. I had a school play and I was really nervous so I closed my eyes and opened them when I needed to but I done it(eventually)

  4. ive been in front of a very large crowd before and yes I was really scared. so please let mouse know that she is not alone. tell her that if she needs to talk/vent then she can ask santa for my address and she can write me a letter and I will always write back.

  5. Poor Mouse! I have been on stage a few times, and before it I was literally sweating but on the actual day I felt fabulous.

  6. Oh poor Mouse! 🙁 Well we were doing a big year five Easter production and I was singing a solo in part of the song. I felt very comfident but about a day before I was literatly sweating. But I closed my eyes and wispered to myself:
    ‘Don’t loose it just prove it,
    It’s like talking/singing to some toys
    Don’t loose it’

  7. I am nervous when I wrestle I have learned to say to myself this quote.

    Sleep I don’t get it.
    Beef I don’t sweat it.
    Fear *curse word* Fear.

    It helps.

  9. Santa,before I had to make a report and read it to the class and my teacher said”pretend everyone is gone or in there unders.” Well,Bye!

  10. This is a very good story for if you’re ever in a situation like this one in the story that I just read.I am glad Mouse got up the courage to go on with the North Pole play that their going to do up there in the mits.I think she did the right thing too, because that means if she ever does any other play she already knows that she can do it and she won’t mess up if she keeps on practicing over and over to do a good job in the play that she would be doing.

  11. Santa they will do great i believe in them remember that i emailed you and told the elves hi but good luck elves you guys will do fantastic

We will get to do that again and this time I won’t be afraid of coming to perform in front of a crowd ’cause it was alot of fun. But just because you’re scared doesn’t mean you should give up because you might end up liking it!
