Dr. Seuss's Day

We interrupt our regular scheduled week to celebrate the birth of a man who had no children {in fact they frighten him} but he made many children happy with his words and rhymes.

The day started with a breakfast of "Green Eggs and Ham" and we found that Sam's friend does -infact- like them. {funny note... did you know that there are only 49 different words in this book? He had a friend bet him that he couldn't write a book with less than 50 different words, well he did and what a great book.... the first 300 times, it gets old after that}
We read the "Foot Book" and looked at all our feet, and the different feet we meet.

We had a frankfurter roast with a marshmallow toast, and decided that all Sneetches were the best on the beaches.

Sang "Happy Birthday" to an author that was truly great.

And finished the day with the Oobleck. Which we are not quite sure what the Oobleck is but it was a lot of fun to play with.
Thank you Dr. Seuss for all the books that you have written and helping to foster the love of reading that my boys have. Letting them dream about all sorts of crazy creatures, and knowing that the places they can get to is as far as they want to go.
