St.
Patrick's Day Crafts for Kids
Green
Hats
Fold
sheets of newspaper in half, short end on short end. Fold
the top corners (folded ends) over so they meet in the
center. Fold up the bottom edges so they meet the folded
edges. Pour a small amount of paint in a plastic lid, dip
the sponge in the paint, and let your child decorate the hat.
Hide
the Shamrock
-
Green
construction paper
-
Scissors
Cut a
shamrock out of green construction paper. Choose a child to
be "it." While the other children hide their eyes,
"it" hides the shamrock within a designated area.
Everyone then opens their eyes and tries to find the
shamrock. The finder gets to be "it" for the next
round. These
great ideas came from The
Preschooler's Busy Book by Trish Kuffner
