The concept

The story is about two children who are bored on a rainy day. Then an unexpected visitor turns up at the door: the Cat in the Hat. Together with Thing One and Thing Two, he turns the whole house upside down.

The Experience

Your couch spins and swerves from room to room. Every scene from the book has been colourfully recreated, full of zany figures and frantic movement. Meanwhile, you try to clear up the Cat's mess before Mother gets home.

Look out for the shapes

Dr. Seuss hardly ever drew straight lines. That's why Seuss Landing is built crooked, lopsided and wonderfully strange too.

Do you know the story?

Read the book with your children beforehand. Then they'll recognise every scene on the ride.
