The Cat in the Hat is one of my favorite Dr. Seuss books. I was also the first book my now 12 year old daughter read when she was 3 years old. This is a wonderful collection of crafts. Thanks so much for sharing on Littles Learning Link Up. This post is one of the featured posts this week. I’ve also pinned it.
