Dr. Seuss Fun

March 2nd was read across America day and the 108th Birthday of Dr. Seuss. I wanted to do something special with my kids to celebrate both.  We read lots and lots of books...including lots of Dr. Seuss Books. Our favorites are The Cat in the Hat and Green Eggs and Ham although we like a lot of others too.  In preparing activities for my kids I had the thought to put together a list of some of our favorite Dr. Seuss books along with an activity and treat to go along with them. I ended up finding an AMAZING packet online with a ton of fun ideas...I LOVE it!  Rather then create my own I wanted to share it with you along with some additional ideas/pictures.  I love all these fun ideas!

You can find this free packet over at Oopsey Daisy.  It has great ideas and some printables for lots of Dr. Seuss's books including: The Foot Book, Fox in Socks, Horton Hears a Who!, Dr. Seuss's ABC, Green Eggs and Ham, Wacky Wednesday, The Sneetches, The Shape of Me and Other Stuff, Bartholomew and the Oobleck, If I Ran the Zoo, The Grinch Who Stole Christmas, The Lorax, The Cat in the Hat, Hop on Pop, There's a Wocket in my Pocket, Oh the Places You'll Go!, One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish. It really is a great resource.  Once you have clicked on the link go to the tab "Mommy School" and look for the picture above...she has lots of other great packet too!

The more that you read

the more things you will know,

the more that you learn

the more places you'll go!
