St. Patrick's day is almost here and there are so many fun craft ideas out there! I have chosen some of my favorites to share below. For more ideas, check out the links under sources at the bottom of the page.
An Educational Rainbow Craft from Housing a Forest
I am sharing this one first because it is a craft and an educational game all in one. I love this one because it is fun and colorful, uses food (which kids always love) and makes a game of learning. Additionally, it could be adjusted for younger kids to practice color recognition.
Note: The directions are for a math game. If you have toddlers, you could skip the dice and have them sort the fruit loops by color. This is especially helpful if you have multiple kids because they can be doing a different version of the same craft/activity.
Paper Leprechaun Craft from The Best Ideas for Kids
I love this one because it is so cute, funny, and little ones will love to see their face as part of the craft. Additionally, it would be a fun addition the fridge decor for the holiday or a cute gift to give to grandparents for St. Patrick's Day.
St. Patrick's Day Tambourine from Red Ted Art:
My little guy LOVES music, so I love this craft idea. Another craft and activity in one! While the directions called for paint, it would be easy to use markers, crayons, or colored pencils to decorate the paper plates for less mess. An easy and fun craft that your little on will have a blast with!
Leprechaun Lookers from Views from a Step Stool
These leprechaun binoculars are perfect if you want to go on a leprechaun hunt! You can create these binoculars with your little ones and then go hunting for leprechauns together, maybe create leprechaun traps - that sounds like a great St. Patrick's Day for little ones!
Leprechaun Trap from Crafting a Fun Life
If you are hunting for leprechauns, you may need to set up a leprechaun trap! I love to encourage imagination and this creative project gives kids the chance to be creative and use endless amounts of imagination.
St. Patrick's Day Clover Suncatcher from Pink Stripey Socks
I love this one because it also involves getting outside and letting kids explore nature. I have seen several versions of this with tissue paper as well, but I loved the use of clovers in this one.
These are just my absolute favorites, but there are so many cute ideas out there. If you would like more ideas, check out the links below under Sources!
