Cat in the Hat Party Idea

I admit that when the kids were little, I went a little crazy making Dr. Seuss’s and Lorax’s ideas and crafts for the blog. We love Dr. Seuss, and the kids have always loved Dr. Seuss’s birthday celebration at school. Like this Cat in the Hat Napkin Ring and Lorax Truffula Tree Pinwheels

This coloring tablecloth is easy to make and the perfect way to keep kids entertained while waiting for their food to arrive. The kids can enjoy drawing all over the tablecloth; the best part is that it is a disposable tablecloth. Just take it off the table and throw it away after the party or event.

Here’s What You’ll Need:

Dr. Seuss tablecloth supplies

Red Paper – I found some Red Kraft Paper Online that was perfect for this party idea

White Paper – I also found White Kraft Paper online

Tape – You’ll want to use transparent tape and secure the strips of paper together

Equipment

Scissors

Measuring Tape (optional)

Instructions:

Cut the craft paper a little bit longer than the table’s width. Allow for about a six-inch overhang on either side of the table

Alternate placing red and white paper across the table, overlapping them just a little bit

Once you have the pieces where you’d like them, then use transparent tape to secure the paper together

What to Set out on your Kraft Tablecloth

Some great ideas include:

  • markers
  • stamps and inkpads
  • crayons
  • stickers

FAQs

What kind of paper is used to make a paper tablecloth?

Kraft paper is perfect for a paper tablecloth. For larger tables, you can find wide rolls and layer them side by side onto a large table. Secure the paper together with transparent tape
