Spring Training
March 5, 2012 by Leave a Comment
It is officially my favorite month of the year to be a Phoenician — March. Thousands of people travel from all over the country and world to visit Phoenix this time of year, but we are spoiled rotten and get to enjoy the beauties of the city each and every day. One of the most popular things going on in the Valley in March is SPRING TRAINING. I like baseball and all, but I’m by no means a die-hard fan. That being said, I {love} me some Spring Training. What’s better than sunshine, baseball, beer, family and friends? There are games all over the city so break out the sunscreen and enjoy a game…or two! Click here for more information.

Personally, I am getting super excited for the new theatrical release of The Lorax, which coincidentally comes out on Dr. Seuss’ birthday, March 2nd! To get ready for the big release we wanted to give you all some fun things to do with your kids to get into the Seussical spirit. If you haven’t done so before, check out the Seussville University which provides teachers and parents awesome activities for kids of all ages. It is also a fun interactive site for those kids who want to stare at your iPad all day!
And for an easy peasy way to get that Seuessical Spirit flowing… here are some fun Seussical printables for the kiddos:
