An Enchanted Childhood Playschool ~ March 4th-8th ~ Dr. Seuss


Saturday was the birthday of Dr. Seuss, beloved childhood author since the early 60s.  NanaKerri, Hannah, and now Bunny and Squirrely have listened to Dr Seuss books being read aloud by their mamas!  This week we celebrated his life by reading a book and doing a related activity, each day, Monday-Thursday!

Monday, we read The Cat in the Hat, and then made super cute, Pinterest inspired Cat in the Hat masks!

 
The boys begged to have their pictures taken while making silly faces! 







Tuesday, we read One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish and made handprint fish!





Wednesday, we read Dr. Seuss's ABC book and used stickers to practice our ABCs!





And Thursday, we read Hop on Pop and made popcorn!





We had a great week celebrating Dr. Seuss's life and books!
