Hello, friends! Welcome to Story Time with Ranma and Toby! We have a fun story to share with you today. Are you ready? Let’s dive in!
Today, we’re reading a book called “Mice on Ice” by Rebecca Emberley. It’s all about some adventurous mice. Let’s see what they’re up to!
Our story begins with mice walking on the snow. But wait, there’s more! These mice can skate on the ice! Isn’t that amazing? Mice skating on ice look so nice!
Someone is waiting. Who could it be? What will the mice do next? Maybe they’ll do something surprising! Let’s find out together!
Oh, look! There’s something new. Do you see it? It’s a cat! And guess what? The cat is wearing a hat! What do you think will happen now?
The cat with the hat joins the mice on the ice. They all skate together! Isn’t that nice? Mice, a cat, ice, and snow—what a fun adventure!
We hope you enjoyed “Mice on Ice” by Rebecca Emberley. If you liked the story, come back for more fun adventures with Ranma and Toby. See you next time!
Ice Skating Adventure: Create a small ice rink using a tray and some water. Freeze it overnight to make a mini ice rink. Use small toy figures or animal figurines to mimic the mice and the cat from the story. Let the children play and create their own ice skating adventures. Ask them to describe what their characters are doing and how they feel while skating.
Draw Your Own Story: Provide paper and crayons for the children to draw their own version of “Mice on Ice.” Encourage them to add new characters or settings. Ask questions like, “What would happen if the mice met a dog on the ice?” or “What other adventures could the mice and the cat have together?” This activity helps children use their imagination and understand story elements.
Observation Walk: Take the children on a short walk outside to observe the environment. Ask them to look for things that remind them of the story, like ice, snow, or animals. Encourage them to think about how these elements could be part of a new story. Discuss what they see and how it relates to “Mice on Ice.” This helps children connect the story to the real world.

“Mice on Ice” by Rebecca Emberley. Nice! Walking on snow… Whoa! I did not know that! I didn’t know they could skate on ice! I don’t know if I can handle this. Are you kidding me? They skate now? This is awesome! Wow, mice on ice look nice! Mice are skating!
Someone is waiting. I know I’m waiting for what? To see what these crazy mice are going to do next! I can’t wait! What are they going to do? Walk on fire? Oh, what is this? What is that? Oh boy, this does not look good for the mice.
Do you see what this looks like? You know what that is? Yeah, we’re seriously asking—what is it? What does it look like? Answer us!
Hey camera, hey! We’re talking to you! Help! That is a cat! That is a cat with a hat! Oh boy, no! He’s got a hat on! What’s going to happen next?
It’s always a bad sign when you have mice and cats and hats.
1, 2, 3, you’re fine! Two or three… shaky three and three! Oh boy, he’s a pretty cat in a pretty hat, and he’s playing in the snow. Will he be nice to the mice? The answer? We don’t know!
The cat with a hat skates with mice on ice. Nice! I can’t look at anything the same again. My whole world has changed! Mice, cats, ice, snow—everything has changed!
I mean, my name has changed!
Frank? No, your name’s the same!
Okay, Ryan.
Good! You weren’t supposed to… “Mice on Ice” by Rebecca Emberley.
