Get Your Green On

Everyone loves to pretend their Irish for a day and celebrate St. Patrick’s day. Here are a few fun ideas to celebrate with you kids.

Gold Coins

Have a scavenger hunt and have the kids collect gold coins you have hidden around the house.

“Lucky” the Leprechaun

Lucky visits kid’s bedrooms while they are sleeping at night and creates a little mischief. He messes things up, take clothes out of closest and puts them on the ground. He also has a tendency to rearrange stuffed animals. Your kids will have a lot of fun trying figure out what “Lucky” did.

Find the Pot of Gold

Older kids can have a lot of fun looking for a hidden pot of gold (candy or other treat) in your house. Leave clues for your children to find the pot of gold. Make it a neighborhood activity by hiding the pot of gold in your yard.

Green Milk

Add some green food coloring to your child’s milk to get in the spirit. You can also get mint chocolate chip ice cream and make a milkshake for a sweet treat.
