Grab some coloring pages and pencils for a quick Dr. Seuss fun. Turn the Dr. Seuss activities into more realistic characters and items by pasting the colored work on a cardboard and cut them out. I enjoyed doing this with my daughter. It meant that her coloring work survived longer than it would have in a book.
