Dr. Seuss Celebration

“You’re never too old, too wacky, too wild to pick up a book and read to a child.” –Dr. Seuss

Reading is something we do every day in our house. Several times a day, actually. Emilia has a great love for books and it makes her momma and poppa proud. She’s been interested in her Dr. Seuss ABC book lately, and she also likes to watch The Cat in The Hat on PBS Kids. I decided that we would celebrate the famous authors birthday this year. We began with a couple of crafts. We made a hat that resembles The Cat’s Hat. As well as a One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish craft with handprints.

A celebration isn’t complete without food. We munched on fish snack mix (popcorn, goldfish crackers, dried cranberries and golden raisins). As well as, Cat in the Hat Smoothies (pureed strawberries and whipped cream), and Green Eggs and Ham (pretzels with chocolate covered Oreos and M&M’s). It was pretty tasty and fun to eat!

We visited Joseph Beth for their annual birthday bash, as well. It was a popular attraction which made for a big crowd, so I wasn’t able to get many photos. We enjoyed story time, craft time and seeing The Cat. He was rather tall and freighted Emilia, so we kept our distance. Best part was, every child had a piece of birthday cake to celebrate!
