CELEBRATE: Breakfast with The LORAX!

This weekend my lil' boy, Allen, will get to experience his first movie in theaters - Dr. Seuss' The LORAX! Yay!!! He is really excited about seeing a movie on a BIG screen and I just hope he stays in his seat. We are BIG Dr. Seuss fans and he constantly asks me to read him all the books over and over again. When I asked him what his favorite part of The Lorax book was... he said and I quote "frooffla twees" - also known as "truffula trees". Toddlers are so adorable at 2 years old!! To celebrate at home, I put together a breakfast with The LORAX for the kiddos. You can read details and see photos of our diy homemade breakfast below! Please leave a comment to tell us how you are celebrating Dr. Seuss this month.

  1. Love it! We're having a Lorax theme day on Earth Day Eve... Hoping the movie is still in the theatre... it has to be, right?

    Can I ask how you added the mustache and eyebrows to your son's picture? Also the cute movie theatre collage? Thanks!!!

    1. I used my graphic design programs - photoshop and illustrator to create them. But theloraxmovie.com does have a free "app" on their facebook page that allows you to add the Lorax mustache to your own photos.
