Dr. Seuss's Birthday

March 2nd is Dr. Seuss's birthday.  Remember making or wearing those hilarious white with red-striped hats as a kid...so excited to celebrate Dr. Seuss and mimic the infamous "Cat in the Hat" hat?  (Not sure if that's the correct way to type that, but you get the gist.) 

If you want to express that inner child that's still within you...or share your love of Dr. Seuss with the little ones in your life, then here are a few fun activities to celebrate Dr. Seuss....


[One]  Hat Template

(Cut out a strip of paper, measure around child's head, staple, and attach to hat.)
