Another couple of Dr. Seuss ideas

Read the Lorax.  Talk to them about the importance of taking care of not only the outside world, but the inside as well.  Talk about treating things with respect because if they break or die, there may not always be another one to replace it.

Fun activities to do with the Lorax:
Take a clear cup and decorate it.  Use potting soil and grass seeds.  Make a chart together to show how and when they should take care of their plant.  Let them see that their hard work is paying off.
