Dr. Seuss’ Silly Birthday Extravaganza
January 24th, 2012
Celebrate Dr. Seuss’ Silly Birthday, Saturday, March 3 with the MCM. What better way to celebrate this definitive author’s birthday than at the most inspirational and creative place around!
The Silly Birthday Extravaganza begins at 11:00 a.m. and will last until 3:00 p.m. Museum guests can expect a visit from a few of Dr. Seuss’ most popular characters such as the Cat in the Hat and Thing One and Thing Two. Various activities will be set up in the museum’s five galleries celebrating the famous, children’s book author and illustrator. Children can make Oobleck in World at Work, learn a little about the crazy rhyming vocabulary used by Dr. Seuss in the Literacy Gallery, and even watch a local chef demonstrate the art of Green Eggs and Ham in Between the Lions.
With such a strong focus on children’s literacy, MCM looks to promote literacy through fun inspirational play. Join MCM in celebrating the birthday of children’s book author and illustrator, and as Dr. Seuss explained, “the more that you read, the more things you will know. The more you learn the more places you’ll go”
2011 Dr. Seuss’ Silly Birthday was a HUGE success!
