Once upon a time, on the night before Christmas, there was a little mouse named Milton. He was not like any other mouse. Milton loved to dance! While everyone else was asleep, Milton was wide awake, having fun under the Christmas tree.
Milton was swinging his tail and moving his little feet. He said, “I love to dance! Will you dance with me?” He started shaking and twisting his arms and hips. He even did a special dance called the Reindeer Hop. Milton was having so much fun, he just couldn’t stop!
Milton said, “I’m Milton the Dancing Christmas Mouse! I love to dance all around the house. I like to move!” Then, Milton pretended to be a choo-choo train. He went “chugga, chugga, chugga” and said, “Choo, choo, follow me! Let’s do the Chicken Dance around the Christmas tree.”
Milton kept shaking and twisting, hopping and rocking. He was so happy, he said again, “I’m Milton the Dancing Christmas Mouse! I love to dance all around the house. I like to move, oh yeah! I like to move, come on now!”
Milton loves to dance, and he wants everyone to join in the fun. So, next time you hear music, remember Milton and dance like a happy little mouse!
