Dr. Seuss Lessons and Links for Read Across America Day
Our baby cousin Avery
celebrating Dr. Seuss!
This week brings us to an exciting yearly event…
Read Across America Day
March 2nd
Created in honor of Dr. Seuss’ birthday.
Dr. Seuss—Theodor Seuss Geisel—was born here in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1904 and grew up on Mulberry Street, just a short walk from our MindWing office.
We are looking forward to the completion and opening of the Dr. Seuss Museum here in Springfield! It will be such an exciting destination for children as well as adults who grew up loving Dr. Seuss stories!
“The more that you read the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.” With this Seuss quote in mind, please enjoy reading and sharing the following links to Seuss-related information!
