Our 3rd year celebrating Dr. Seuss birthday! Its been so fun. I save my decorations I make each year and reuse them then add a few more things the next year. So it gets a little bit more involved each year. So no, I didn’t do all of this creating in 1 year. It’s gradual ๐
This is our dinner table. Most of our parties usually revolve around food. Who DOESN’T love food? And since we have to eat dinner I just pick themed dinners. It is easiest instead of trying to make food just for the heck of it, I just fancy up dinner time ๐
Lets take a closer look at the table ๐
Green Deviled Eggs and No Ham ๐
One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish and Goldfish. Gold fish crackers in a little fish type bowl. (found at dollar store)
Truffula Tree Cupcakes (see this post on how to make these)
Poodle’s with Noodles – Mac & Cheese
Cat in the Hat Kabob – strawberries and bananas on a skewer
Hop on POPcorn.ย Pretty self explanatory. ๐
Schlott’s Knotts. Pigs in a blanket (used cressant rolls wrapped around hotdogs)
Another view of the table ๐
Table again ๐
Oh–Pink Yink Ink Drink –ย our drink is strawberry lemonade.
Some of our decorations- Lorax mutaches on a sraw, Dr. Seuss books make great decorations.
A view from our porch. We ate our dinner on the porch that evening since I kind of took over the dining room table with the party food ๐
Every year I add 1 new Dr. Seuss book to our collection. This year I added 3. It was hard NOT to. Because the store had a sale buy 2 get 1 free. ๐ So our collection grew quite a bit.
I got the Cat in the Hat- hat at my Dollar Tree last year. I found it just randomly there and had to buy more than 1 hat. So happy I did ๐
This was our party. The kids loved it. Dinner was easy for me to make. It was very kid friendly. Not as healthy as I would have liked but a night off for some FUN kid food made it exciting for them.
My daughter had a friend join us for dinner. I had my mom join us. Parties are ALOT more fun with friends and family!!
I wish we had thought of having a party for Dr. Seuss birthday. For a few years now my hsb has gone to our friend’s school to read a Dr. S book or two. Until this year he dressed in costume. The teachers have their students create individual thank yous for him so the lessons go on. He might have liked that we had a party for him. We did pass on the three new Dr. S. books to a grandchild.
LOVE the Lorax mustaches!!! So cute. Great job!
So cute! Where did you get the cards for the food that say the different sayings?
How did you do those food signs?
