I love finding great Dr. Seuss activities! Dr. Seuss is one of my all-time favorite children’s author. Some of my first memories of reading with my mother come from Dr. Seuss. My favorites being The Lorax and The Cat In The Hat. This post contains some affiliate links for your convenience.

These fun stories not only share fun inspiring rhymes but some life lessons as well. As far as The Lorax goes, I love how he is a protector of the environment. In celebration of Dr. Seuss’s birthday, I thought I would share this fun craft you can do with your kids. Enjoy!
