Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss! Plus some great activities!

 photo happybdayseuss_zps34c29c0b.png

One person who has always had a place in my life is Dr. Seuss! My kids have all my old books, as well as new ones, and my son learned to read with Green Eggs And Ham. I keep saying now that his characters are so popular, I want to make a nursery for a baby with that decor. Now, that is if I decide to have another child (I am not pregnant right now lol).

I love the simplicity of Dr Seuss's writing and the great fun in each of his stories. They are all awesome to me. Something you never forget, and helps you learn from a young age. So Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss, we love you!

I found some super fun crafts and activities for the kiddos! They are pretty simple and the kids loved them. Check them out:

How to Make a Pink Clover like Horton's

Printable Seuss Worksheets & Coloring Pages

Dr. Seuss Activities - A to Z Teacher Stuff

There are some sites that have popped up over time for great Dr. Seuss themed items:

Just in time for Easter, VeggieTales is releasing THE LITTLE HOUSE THAT STOOD, an all-new VeggieTales story premiering on DVD and available at Walmart on Tuesday, March 5, 2013 that you and you family is sure to love. THE LITTLE HOUSE THAT STOOD is not only a delightfully funny new story but one that also teaches children valuable life lessons.

THE LITTLE HOUSE THAT STOOD reunites fans with popular VeggieTales characters including:

Larry the Cucumber – Goofy, green and always a little bit silly!

Bob The Tomato – He’s the practical one who likes to make sure there’s a lesson to learn, but always gets pulled into Larry’s silliness!

Jr. Asparagus – This little 6-year-old Veggie is full of fun and reminds us that little guys can do big things too!

Plus – The French Peas, Madame Blueberry, AND MORE!

THE LITTLE HOUSE THAT STOOD parodies two popular nursery rhymes - The Three Little Pigs and Humpty Dumpty - to help impart valuable life lessons. The Three Little Pigs meet the Wise and Foolish builders and learn that by making good choices, they can build a house that will stand against any storm! In the “The Good Egg of Gooseville” we find out what happens BEFORE Humpty cracks, in a good neighbor story where we learn why it’s a nice to lend a little hand to those in need.

Check out the trailer/preview HERE.

As a parent, you know it’s important to impart good values to your children as early as possible. In today’s society, that’s not always easy. But, with VeggieTales, you can be assured that children are not only exposed to nice wholesome stories, but valuable lessons that will last a lifetime.
