Cat in the Hat visits Holy Family
“Look at me NOW! It is fun to have fun…” And, fun they had when the Cat in the Hat stopped by Holy Family Catholic School last Thursday, to help students in pre-kindergarten through fourth grades celebrate Dr. Seuss’ birthday.
The mischievous cat read the Dr. Seuss favorite, “Green Eggs and Ham,” then “he gave them a pat,” and was gone, just like that!
The students continued to celebrate, coloring Dr. Seuss pictures, making crafts, and talking about their favorite Seuss books.
After the classroom festivities, the students had the appropriate green eggs and ham for lunch, although when some of students sat down to eat their lunch, they quickly decided, “I do not like green eggs and ham!”
