In my classroom, we turn the week into Dr. Seuss week! We do an author study and look at a variety of Dr. Seuss books. We have activities, worksheets, writing craftivities, and math stations that center around the book. The kids favorite part is our Dr. Seuss Snack that matches the book!
Here are 5 [fairly simple] Dr. Seuss Inspired Snacks!
The Cat in the Hat inspired Snack! This one is the trickiest, but it is definitely doable! Marshmallows dipped in white chocolate with a cookie or half an oreo as the base (I have heard banana works instead of marshmallows). Put red fruit snacks around it. Dip the base in blue sprinkles! The kids will love this Cat in the Hat snack!
One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish! This one is simple! Just make blue jello and put into individual cups! Place swedish fish in the cups. Make sure you wait until you are about to serve it or else the fish get slimy and the color wears off (we ended up with fish that looked dead one year...) The kids loving solving these addition problems on our One Fish, Two Fish day!
Hop on Pop! Anyone can make this! It is just popcorn! We put them in individual bags for the kids!
The Lorax! This is my favorite Dr. Seuss book & the snack is pretty good too! Just take a nutter butter cookie. Add the candy eyes and a yellow frosting mustache! I like to do this long vowel and short vowel word sort during our Lorax day! We also sort real words and silly words on Lorax day (and throughout the rest of the week)!
Green Eggs and Ham! I used to do the green yogurt & vanilla wafer for the kids. That always got quite the reaction. Now I do pretzel sticks with melted white chocolate hershey kiss and a green m&m on top!
