We are British so St. Patrick’s Day was never big in our house. But then we had kids and kids love St. Paddy’s activities so here we are.
There are so many fun kid friendly things for them to do at home and help their fine motor skills that will get their creative juices flowing.
Kids love rainbows of color but for this special day they like anything colored green, like green food, green shamrocks, green candy and green clovers. This can usually be accomplished by using green food coloring. Of course they love wearing green too.
Kids love colorful rainbows, lucky charms cereal, and gold coins (or pot o gold) and printables.
So, dive into these fun St. Patrick Day crafts and St. Patrick’s Day kids activities below.
