PBS The Cat-in-the-Hat-a-thon and Birthday Planner

 PBS KIDS is celebrating Dr. Seuss’ 108^th birthday on March 2^nd with THE CAT-IN-THE-HAT-A-THON - a two-hour marathon of their popular series THE CAT IN THE HAT KNOWS A LOT ABOUT THAT!, which my kids (and myself) love to watch every day.

During the two hour special we’ll get to see TWO BRAND NEW episodes. You can also see video clips from all four episodes for free online at PBSKIDS.org/video and on the PBS KIDS Video App for iDevices.



Dr. Seuss Birthday Party Planner:
Also, on March 1^st the PBS KIDS Shop will launch a Birthday Party Builder Tool – a one-stop-shop for parents’ every party needs offering customizable recommendations based on number of guests with exclusive, personalized products based on The Cat in the Hat. It will offer tips on everything from tableware and party banners to clothing and gifts.

For years there has been a lack of commercial products available for a Dr. Seuss themed birthday party so we’ve all been crafting, decorating and making our own versions to celebrate. I think it is great to have another resource to pull from to get ideas or order products to make it easier when planning a party. I can’t wait to see what they have lined up. 

SALE: Be sure to use the discount code ‘CELEBRATE’ to save 10 percent on any Dr. Seuss items now through Saturday, March 3.

PBS KIDS KUED- Utah Reading Marathon Party
We attended this fun party in January as a reward for tracking our reading. The kids had fun meeting the characters. Local children's organizations each hosted a booth with a theme from one of the PBS Kids characters.



The kids got to dig for dinosaur eggs (with prizes inside) at the Dinosaur Train booth, do silly science experiments at the Sid the Science Kid booth and read to therapy dogs at the Martha Speaks booth. We had a fabulous time.
