Celebrate Dr. Seuss’s Birthday in Seuss Landing at Universal Islands of Adventure

New Cat in the Hat merch offerings available in Islands of Adventure for Dr. Seuss' birthday

When Dr. Seuss published “Oh, the Places You’ll Go!” in 1990, he probably didn’t envision one of those places being Seuss Landing in Universal Islands of Adventure at Universal Orlando Resort. Thirty-six years later, I can think of no better place to celebrate Dr. Seuss’ birthday — today, March 2! — than a land entirely inspired by his creativity and imagination.

Whether you’re joining The Things for a ride on The Cat in the Hat, getting the best view of the theme park from The High in the Sky Seuss Trolley Train Ride, or taking a spin on the Caro-Seuss-el, there’s no wrong way to celebrate. But there is a surefire way to really show your Seuss-y spirit: with exclusive The Cat in the Hat merchandise, available only at Universal Orlando Resort!

Read on for the full list of offerings:

Spirit Jerseys & Wearable Apparel

There are so many iconic Dr. Seuss characters, but The Cat in the Hat really takes the cake. Get it? Cake, for Dr. Seuss’ birthday! You can show off your love for this beloved character by rocking a new shirt or spirit jersey, available only at Universal Orlando Resort.

Crossbody Bag

Speaking of Thing One and Thing Two, why not flaunt The Cat in the Hat’s two silly sidekicks with an adorable crossbody bag? The cool, 3-D effect of one of the Things peeking out of the top is sure to turn the heads of your fellow Seuss fans throughout Islands of Adventure.

Baseball Cap

The Cat in the Hat is no stranger to a fashion statement. His iconic accessory is part of his name, after all! And now you, too, can rock an iconic hat of your own: this sleek baseball cap, featuring the cat, the myth, the legend himself.

Water Bottle

You know what I think? Water is important to drink! (I’d like to believe that Dr. Seuss would agree with the sentiment and the rhyme.) With a shiny, new The Cat in the Hat water bottle, you can make sure you’re staying hydrated as you play in Seuss Landing.

PRO TIP: If all that play works up an appetite, swing by Green Eggs & Ham Cafe for one of my favorite eats: Buffalo Chicken Tots! (Or any of the other tot creations, all of which are delicious!)

Pins & More

Looking for a more subtle way to pay tribute to Dr. Seuss and The Cat in the Hat? These new pins are just the ticket! Plus, you can browse exclusive necklaces, bracelets, earrings, plush rings, and more in Cats, Hats and Things, located right next to The Cat in the Hat’s namesake attraction.

Bonus: Sweet Birthday Treats!

It wouldn’t be a day in Seuss Landing without a sweet treat. And it especially wouldn’t be a birthday celebration without one! Seuss Landing is home to plenty of delicious eats to choose from, but my recommendation is a The Cat in the Hat cupcake, available for purchase from Snookers & Snookers Sweet Candy Cookers.
