It was so fun
for me to put together the party and really run with the Dr. Seuss theme. I really wanted to
run with it with everything. The decorations, favor, food and games.For decorations, I'm so lucky that my MIL is a teacher. She was able to order some cute classroom decorations that had all different Dr. Seuss characters. I put them all over the place. I made centerpieces from fish bowls and marbles with sparkly, twisty sticks. They made the tables more fun. Of course I decorated with Dr. Seuss books and stuffed animals. They completed the look.
For the food, I did a bunch of research. I found poodles eating noodles (pasta salad), green eggs (green deviled eggs), goldfish (the fish from The Cat in the Hat), and baby burgers (I got baby
from the ABC book and just added burger). The dessert was just as theme oriented. I made 3 kinds of cupcakes. One was called Kupkakenator Kupkakes, from The Cat in the Hat movie. It was raspberry lemonade
cupcakes and on the top I put a vanilla wafer cookie and stacked red and white life savers. It was cute, they looked like Cat in the Hat hats. The second cupcakes I made I called "eat them in a tree cupcake." I got it from Green Eggs and Ham. I made key lime cupcakes and they were nice and green. The third cupcake were Thing 1 and 2 cupcakes. They were red velvet cake wi
th cream cheese frosting. On the top, I added blue cotton candy. It made it look like the crazy hair thing 1 and 2 have. They all came out great. For Steve, I made a dirt cake. It was complete with gummy worms, grass and truffela trees from The Lorax. The trees didn't hold up like I wanted them
too, but everyone got the idea.More on the party in the next post.
