This is an example of what is termed in the trade as a 'plush' toy, in other words a toy made from fabric, probably also containing some stuffing somewhere. It is also a finger puppet! br br Initially, you just see a small, red box. But lift the lid and shock horrors! it is full of mice... well, three mice anyway. All leaping around in a very lifelike fashion. However they are not real, they are finger puppets.
