media type="custom" key="21634210" This year 3ES will be making mini models of "The Nutcracker". This is based on a Russian ballet which has amazing sets and costumes. We will be making our "Nutcracker" out of wooden pegs and using pipe cleaners for the sword and using gold thread for the uniform, paint the features and costume onto the pegs. A colouring in sheet can be found below that I made up for the activity which will help to get the distinctive features onto the wooden models.
