Hooray for Friday!
Little Man has a fun play group that meets together each week. This Wednesday, it was our turn to host. To introduce our "S is for Seuss" Mommy School unit, I decided to throw a little Dr. Seuss birthday party! We made Cat in the Hat paper headbands, read some Dr. Seuss books, and ate Lorax cupcakes!
Of course the cupcakes were a big hit with the boys.
Little Man and his friends enjoyed every bite!
(Little Man wasn't loving the idea of wearing his hat!)
These were so fun to make!
* I just tinted my favorite frosting orange using orange food coloring.
* I used white peanut butter M&M's for the eyes, and drew the eyeballs on with black icing.
* I used the edges of Oreos for the moustaches. I dipped them in yellow melts and drizzled some extra yellow chocolate for the "furry" look.
* I used a white Chicket for the nose and a part of a red Lifesaver for the mouth!
Are you going to see the new "The Lorax" movie?
We just might be going on a Mommy/son date to the movies today!
Enjoy your weekend!

These cupcakes are too cute, Alison!! What a fun way to kick off Dr. Seuss’ birthday! Have fun at the movie!
Thanks Michele! We loved the movie!!
So adorable! I made my daughter Seuss inspired bentos for school this week, we had a blast! Hopefully we will catch the movie this weekend, have fun!
We just returned from the movie, and it was so cute!! I hope you can catch it… you will love it! 🙂
I absolutely love this cupcake idea. It is so fun and timely with the recent release of “The Lorax” movie. As a college student, I always love finding inspiration for crafting/baking ideas, and I hit the jackpot when I came across your site. I was actually on Pinterest.com when I found your St. Patrick’s Day dessert cup recipe. I wanted to use it for the St. Patrick’s Day special section I’m putting together for my student newspaper. Thanks for all the fun ideas, please keep posting! 🙂
