Reading Week

February 28, 2011 By
What?! What’s that you say? This week is Dr. Seuss’s birthday?!
 
Yes, it’s true! The man behind the won­der­ful char­ac­ters & rhyming tongue-twisters was born on March 2nd! So, to cel­e­brate (and in con­junc­tion with Read Across Amer­ica)I’m declar­ing this “Read­ing Week” on the blog! I’ll be high­light­ing some of our favorite books and (hope­fully) some fun Seuss themed activities.
If you’d like to join in the fun, here are some sites to get you started:
- Seussville is a FANTASTIC site for all things “Seuss”. Check it out for all kinds of Seuss-tastic fun!
 
- One of the PBS Kids’ Shows is “Cat in the Hat”. On the site, you can find all kinds of activ­ity ideas. And, on March 2nd, PBS will run a 2 hour “Cat in the Hat” marathon.
- If you’re think­ing about doing some Seuss-inspired bak­ing, Katie from Good Life Eats might spark some inspi­ra­tion for you.

- And, you can check out “ObSEUSSed” for all kinds of fun ideas!

Hope you stop back by this week to share in our read­ing week!
Are YOU plan­ning any­thing fun to cel­e­brate Dr. Seuss or read­ing this week?
