Partying for Dr. Seuss’ Birthday

Did someone say party?  Beyond reading the kid’s favorite Seuss books over and over, we partied in Dr. Seuss’ honor with a Cat in the Hat-themed party.

Complete with Cat in the Hat party hats, a stack of our favorite Seuss-penned books, cupcakes and balloons, the kid and a few pals previewed the latest The Cat in the Hat Knows a lot About That episodes.  The new episodes, which can be seen on PBS today as part of the 2-hr long Cat in the Hat Marathon, featured more of Nick, Sally and the Cat’s adventures.

On their latest adventures, the trio meet Salmon Sam and learn about her “Incredible Journey.”  In our favorite new episode, “Bamboozled,” the kids meet Zhu Zhu, a giant panda (as opposed to a motorized hamster) who teaches the kids all the cool uses of Bamboo.  In the other new episodes, Nick and Sally go on to learn about amoebas and other small things in “Teeny Weeny Adventure,” and then they learned all about seeds and how they travel in “I See Seeds.”

If you’re fans of Dr. Seuss’ treasured books, especially Cat in the Hat,  be sure to check out Nick, Sally and the Cat’s science-based adventures in The Cat in the Hat Knows a lot about That on PBS.

The Dr. Seuss books are part of our personal collection, but I had to send a big thank you to our friends at PBS Kids for the Cat in the Hat Party supplies.
