{seeds} unless …

unless someone like you ...

We went to see The Lorax today. It was such a visual feast ~ I love the way these movies bring the Seussical worlds to life. I saw mixed reviews but I thought it was great ~ not too long, funny moments musical numbers and some bits only the adults will get.

I haven’t done a {seeds} post for a while so it seemed only fitting to throw one in today.

I loved the “unless” monument and this quote, which they displayed at the end. You only need one person to plant that seeds, and then a whole army of  ”someones” can work to make things better. I’m hoping my children took away some really simple but effective messages from the movie.

Coming home, I was poking around YouTube and found the original cartoon of The Lorax and I also started a Seussical channel. The Sneetches are among our favourites.

Oh, and you’re looking for a {zesty find} ~ look no further than these Lorax chucks by Converse.

friday freebie: a birthday printable

We all know someone having a birthday at some point, and it wouldn’t be a Friday, or a bloggy birthday, without a printable and a little bit of Seuss love now, would it?

So here’s a print, a letter-sized pdf so it fits universally on all printers. Use it for someone special on their birthday, or print two to a page {an option in Acrobat} to make cards.

Get the “Your Day of all Days!” print here

“today is your day” Dr Seuss

Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So… get on your way.

That’s right. Happy birthday Dr Seuss, born on this day in 1904. You didn’t think I would let this day just pass by now did you?

And it feels only fitting to fill the day with all things Seussical.

From there to here, and here to there, funny things are everywhere

1. A hotel room in Portfino Bay. Take the tour with The Pioneer Woman

Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You.

2. The Cat in the Hat from A Toy a Day

I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells

3. Seussical Sweets over at Cake Wrecks

The more that you read, the more things you will know.

4. The book Happy Birthday to You at Amazon

You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.

5. Seussical shoes ~thank you Converse

A person’s a person, no matter how small.

6. Can it get any cuter? Stripe series by Sweet Pea Toad Tots

Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple

7. Quote via Little Shop of Dreams

friday freebie: oh, the Places you’ll go

There was quite the enthusiastic response to my top 5 dr seuss quotes the other day, so today I thought I would share something I have wanted to do for a long time, and that is put my skills to work on a print.

So I have taken one of those wonderful Seussical quotes for a Seussical themed inspiration print. And to share and share alike, I have also made it into a notecard as well.
