The Doctor of Rhyme

In honor of Dr. Seuss's birthday on March 2nd, here are some fun ideas I have found.   

 

The picture above is from 2009!  Perry and Buzz look so tiny.  They made their hats using 2 sheets of red construction paper.  They cut strips of white paper and glued them on the red paper.  We actually cut up a cereal box to make the strip for around the head.  This made it a little bit more sturdy.  They then covered that with the white paper as well.  We stapled the top and the cardboard around the head.  These were really easy to make, and the boys wore them for days!  I am pretty sure I got this idea from online somewhere, but can't remember where now.  If you know, please tell me so I can give them credit.

 

We of course made green eggs (just scrambled eggs with green food coloring) and ham (Canadian bacon).  If you are not into eggs, maybe you'll like this simple pizza.
