I love to craft with my kids because it is fun to watch them learn, and I am also not afraid to make or clean up a mess. My son Tristan loves to design on worksheets, and there are hundreds of different -St. Patrick’s Day worksheets available online. We do many dot-to-dot for one-to-one correspondence, tracing, and letter and number recognition. Counting worksheets are another big hit in our house. We circled and counted clovers, rainbows, and pots of gold.
If you are not afraid of paint, then squeeze some onto a paper or plastic plate, and dip your kids’ fingers and hand palms to make four hand prints that resemble a four leaf clover. Your kids will love this easy craft, and they also will love to play with the soap in the sink afterwards.
My kids had a lot of fun creating and learning about St. Patrick’s Day. Tomorrow I will have a fun and inexpensive craft to celebrate this holiday in your bath or shower.
Here are some great links for more fun St. Patrick’s Day crafting.
