The Cat in the Hat!


We kicked off our Dr. Seuss theme by making Cat in the Hat headbands!


I created a hat shape out of white paper and had them add the red stripes with glue sticks. I then stapled it to a 2 inch white strip of paper to create a headband. After over 12 years of doing this, I think I finally have found the hat that works. (I have tried many different ways, none that worked well. Who knew simple is best?)  I then added a black nose and whiskers with a face-paint crayon and a red paper bow.




What I loved was that some of the 3's wanted to wear them all morning.




At the easel we had red and white paint with small brushes.


I froze lots of different colored fish (using a fish ice tray from Ikea) for the sensory table (for One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish).


I made green playdough to mimic green eggs. 

I am so glad I decided to stretch this out for two weeks, because we are having a lot of fun with it!

Wednesday will be Wacky Wednesday!!!
