Yesterday, in honor of Dr. Seuss's birthday, the kids and I celebrated with a couple of cute activities. I found a great idea on
Pinterest for making
Cat in the Hat hat cookies but I used red cookie icing instead of the red candy melts for the stripes. I then searched around for some Lorax themed crafts. I found this
tutorial for making a Lorax mask and changed it up a bit based on the materials I had on hand. After making the cookies and the masks, I read the kids
The Lorax and they goofed around with their masks.

For the masks, I used some foam pumpkins I had on hand. Drew eyes to cut out on the orange pumpkins and used the yellow to make the moustache |
|
I cut ovals out of brown felt for the nose and glued a Popsicle stick to the back |

"I am the Lorax" |

"I speak for the trees" |

“Look at me!
Look at me!
Look at me NOW!
It is fun to have fun
But you have to know how.”
