Dr Seuss Hat

Dr Seuss was famous for his rhyming stories with allegorical messages but the trademark Dr Seuss hat from his story, Cat in the Hat, is as famous as his stories are now.

The red and white Dr Seuss hat that fans of this author all know, is used as a place to keep things by the Cat in the Hat, and these versions are big enough to allow you to do this for jokes and fun, just as the cheeky character does.

This hat is a nice one for dressing up for parties and amusing the kids with - perhaps it could be your Dr Seuss reading hat for bedtime Dr Seuss tales.

The inspiration for the trademark Dr Seuss red and white hat is the hat worn by perhaps Dr Seuss's most famous characters: the Cat in the Hat.

The funny Cat, enjoys tricks and games of the type that children love but mothers do not, and he appears to produce fun in two books, "The Cat in the Hat" and "The Cat in the Hat Comes Back".

The Cat in the Hat, and his stripey red and white hat can be seen on the covers of all modern editions of Dr Seuss's children's books.

This version of the Dr Seuss red and white hat is appropriately sized for kids to wear. Cat in the Hat fans can dress up in this novelty hat and act out scenes from their favourite book. Just keep the cleaning up machine handy if Thing1 and Thing 2 turn up as well!

These three Dr Seuss hats are a perfect fit for adults and are all very slightly different, click on the small images to see them in detail. These red and white hats are suitable for fancy dress parties, accompanying young "trick-or-treaters" and just for sheer silly fun around the house with the kids at birthdays or Christmas.

If you are really daring you could wear it to the office party but just hope the boss is a Dr Seuss fan or you may find yourself sent back into a box alongside Thing 1 and Thing 2.

Dr Seuss Party Hats are a perfect way to finish off a Dr Seuss-themed birthday party for children. Various Dr Seuss characters are featured on these hats, but who can resist Cat in the Hat party hats?
