One fish, two fish, red fish, BLUE fish...... (part 1)

We just recently got a new brilliantly BLUE beta fish at our house. Sadly, we needed to give away our dog, so to ease the transition we bought a fish.  Of course, when we went to the pet store the kids were attracted to every animal except the fish! But, we remained strong and came out of the store with one beta fish in one small fish bowl (the bowl does have a cool color changing LED light though). Having a pet is always interesting with three kiddos. I have a feeling some interesting things might happen. Here's what I've been pondering...

1) Will the bowl get knocked over, or how long before it gets knocked over?
2) Who will be the first to stick a toy through the hole in the lid?
3) How long before my 2 year old feeds the fish her snack?
4) When will the bowl get hit by a flying nerf bullet? 
5) Will they forget we even have a fish?
6) How long will this fish live? Can we find a look-a-like?

All of you parents know what I'm talking about.....
 

I'm also a big fan of Dr. Seuss, you know his birthday is March 2nd. (March 2nd- Read Across America Day ) I thought I'd post a few fun ideas & some links as a tribute to this brilliant author whose work has never been matched! I'm sure you'll find an abundance of ideas this week all over the internet! To keep my life simple and because I can never get everything done that I plan for, I'm just gonna stick with one book- One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish and do a few activities with my 2 & 4 year old. You'll have to stay tuned for more..... See you again very soon!
