We had such a busy week, that we hardly got to do any fun Dr. Seuss activities at home last week. So, I plan on continuing Dr. Seuss into our afternoons and evenings this week! We did manage to squeeze in a few fun activities.
On Tuesday evening we went to the public library for story time. They had a special guest reader, the Cat in the Hat. Mikayla was in love. She kept going up to him and pulling his (but really her) leg and interrupting the story! Then we made cat in the hat headbands and bowties. We finished the evening off by singing Happy Birthday to Dr. Seuss. Mikayla surprisingly knows the words and started singing before everyone was ready. Unfortunately I did not remember my camera, so I don’t have any pictures from the evening.
On Friday night Mikayla helped me make green eggs and ham and cat in the hat pancake stacks. Mikayla and Ben also enjoyed some green egg ice cream for dessert. We ended the evening by reading this fabulous board book version of Green Eggs and Ham. We plan on doing some crafty stuff with Cat in the Hat and Green Eggs and Ham, but we just ran out of time!
Mikayla helping stir the pancake mix. Notice her serious face and pudgy belly!

On Saturday we read One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish and had a fish themed lunch. I was also planning on some other fun "fish" activities, but several things came up during the day and we just ran out of time! Maybe next week we will be able to squeeze them in.
Fish shaped sandwich, sand (crumbled crackers), seaweed (celery), goldfish crackers, and bubbles (blueberries). Mikayla loved it!
Such a little cheeser!
I hope to complete some of the other Dr. Seuss activities I had planned this week, but if not we will get to them eventually! We may just call March, Dr. Seuss Month!
