Today I am celebrating Dr. Seuss’s birthday with a fun roundup of some of my favorite DIY book-themed crafts from my blog!
Today is Dr. Seuss’s birthday! Also known as National Read Across America Day. I thought it would be a great day to do a DIY book-themed roundup! I’ve gathered up some of my favorite projects I’ve created that have all been inspired by a children’s book. From the Hungry Caterpillar to Winnie the Pooh, these crafts are fun for anyone who enjoys books. Below you’ll find links to 10 of my favorite crafts inspired by children’s books! I’ve included affiliate links to the books that inspired each project – they are some of our favorite books to read over and over again :)
