It is almost time for Dr. Seuss’ birthday and we have lots of fun activities planned to honor all of the classic children books he created! There are so many fun activities this week, I hope your kids have a blast!
NOTE: Some of the activity links go straight to a pin on Pinterest instead of a blog page. Read the description of the pin for the activity instructions. If you are new here, make sure to check out the Themed Curriculum page for more details about how to use this curriculum. Looking for a different theme? Check out all of our themes here.
