Make a Green Eggs and Ham-Inspired Placemat

What You Do:

1. Use one large sheet of paper as the base for the placemat. Ask her to write the words: “eggs,” “ham,” “spoon,” knife,” “fork,” “Sam,” “house,” and “mouse” on the sheet of paper leaving space for an illustration beside each word.
2. Encourage her to draw a round plate in the center of the placemat.
3. If desired, laminate the base of the placemat with contact paper.
4. Get a second sheet of paper for her to draw illustrations to accompany the words written on the placemat. Make sure she draws a separate picture for each word
5. Ask her to cut out the pictures. If desired, you can also laminate the pictures with contact paper.
6. Now your child can match each word with its correct illustration! She's sure to work up an appetite as she pieces together her very own green eggs and ham placemat.
