Craft – Lepre-CUTIES :-) Every holiday that comes around I always try to find some way to turn the Happy Buddy into something that represents that month.

A String of Shamrocks

Patrick's Day. Most activities are simple things like "Play a game together as a family" or "Do a rainbow craft", etc. A couple are activities I hope to show you here on the blog as we do them. :) Good Luck Charm Necklace. With St.

Good Luck Charm Necklace

Patrick's Day coming up I thought it was a perfect opportunity for my toddler to get some good hand to eye coordination practice in. I pulled out some of my awesome supplies received from Craftprojectideas.com and we decided to make some Good Luck Charm Necklaces for St. Patrick's Day. As you can see in the picture above, we used Hemp Cord for our necklace string, some green Pony Beads, Metallic Shape Beads and Alphabet Beads.

All of these can be found in the crafts section at your local Wal-Mart. My toddler LOVES stringing beads. Lila made a necklace for herself and one to send to one of her cousins as a special gift. Little Leprechauns Craft. I've had this little craft idea in my head for a while now and was ecstatic to finally make it with my kids now that Valentine's Day has passed.

Little Leprechauns Craft

My idea to make little Leprechaun's started when I made this Five Little Turkey's Craft with Lila last November using mini cupcake liners. I looked at the liners and thought the little ridges were a perfect texture for little beards. After being unsuccessful in finding orange cupcake liners anywhere local, we decided to just paint some orange. While the cupcake liners dried, I cut out little Leprechaun hats from green construction paper and green polka-dot scrapbook paper and my boys helped cut out circles from a manila folder for the faces. The manila folders are the perfect Leprechaun skin tone color, eliminating the need for paint.

Once the cupcake liners are dry, glue the faces onto them, and then the hats. Next, glue the Leprechauns all over a sheet of cardstock paper. Shamrock Clothespin Clips. I saw the most darling clothespin heart clips at One Artsy Mama for Valentine's Day and I felt inspired to make some for St.

Shamrock Clothespin Clips

Patrick's Day. I already had some clothespins on hand from Craftprojectideas.com so this project ended up being really simple. Amy used washi tape to cover the front and back of her clothespins which made the whole project so easy! Here it is! St Patrick's Day Art. St. Patrick's Day Hot Cocoa. Hot Cocoa is the favorite special treat around our house during the Winter.

St. Patrick's Day Hot Cocoa

I heat the water in a kettle on the stove and when the kids hear the familiar whistling sound they always jump in delight and yell, "Yay, hot chocolate!! " I have to say that it is one of the few things that I love about the long Winter months here in Utah. St. Patrick's Day Sight Words Game (with free printable) I spent some time this last weekend making a Sight Word Game for my Kindergartner and I've been so excited to share it with you.

St. Patrick's Day Sight Words Game (with free printable)

Below you will find the printables I made for the game. Just click on the images to be directed to the download page. I printed my Game Board on heavy cardstock and laminated it with clear contact paper. The Shamrock Notepad Card Page can be cut into fourths to make four cards. (**FYI: The Game Board Printable appears to have white lines in it when you open the document, but when you print it they aren't there.) To play the game you will also need 1 or 2 dice, a game piece to move around the board, and a pencil. How to Play: Start the game with your shamrock game piece outside the pot on the left side of "they". Reviewing sight words with flashcards gets so drab around our house, so I like coming up with ways to make it more fun.

**I found the free Pot of God Clipart HERE and the free Shamrock clipart HERE. Kid Craft: St. Patty's Day Rainbows. This weekend is St.

Leprechaun Hats {Craft} Shamrock Apple Printing and Other Stuff! I don't know if anyone has ever done this before, but I was cutting apples and thought of this!

Shamrock Apple Printing and Other Stuff!

I love apple printing in the Fall, but what about using an apple to create a shamrock or four leaf clover for St. Patrick's Day??? Here is my example: These are the supplies you will need: an apple, green paint (tempera or acrylic), a paint brush, and sponge to be used as a stamp pad: First, I dabbed the green paint on the sponge and spread it with a brush to cover a surface big enough for the apple.

Cut the apple in half very evenly or it will be difficult for a child to get the whole apple printed!! We tried printing shamrocks (3 leaves) and four leaf clovers and just added a stem with a brush! Here is our lucky four leaf clover again: Just plain apple prints: (I was thinking older kids could cut these out to form shamrocks too!) We experimented with using our fingerprints as the leaves of shamrocks too! We also learned about drawing shamrocks.
