To help celebrate Dr. Seuss' birthday, Carolyn Rapp and I made a special appearance as Thing One and Thing Two at St. Andrew's Preschool. We came to visit the class, eat snacks with the students, and read them our favorite story, "The Cat in the Hat". This was a really fun experience, and it was enjoyable for us, the teachers, and the students. Reading to the students wasn't a simple task though, along with the teachers at the school, we worked together to come up with costumes and ideas for our 

story time together. We planned to dress as Thing One and Thing Two and gathered our supplies. We also picked out our story and read through before reading to the class, in order to practice our "Thing One and Two" voices. Overall, having the chance to read to the class was a ton of fun. The kids were very excited and getting to interact with them was an awesome experience. I also enjoyed getting to take the time to plan and work with Carolyn. It gave us a chance to see how well we worked together creatively. I hope that Thing One and Two get to make another appearance at Dr. Seuss' next birthday bash!!
