St. Patrick's Day is approaching!
Each year I like to do something small for the boys for St. Patty's Day. Here are a few of the things I did in past years, and some new ideas.
Green Rice Krispies Treats: I haven't made these, yet, but they are on the list this year. I know I can buy Rice Krispie Treats, but I have never made them before, and I think the boys will love them!
Crochet Shamrocks: The pattern for these little guys can be found herehere. They are great to adorn the little pots above. They can also make a cute hair bow, or be worn somehow, so no one gets pinched!
Scavenger Hunt: I did this one a couple of years ago, and the boys really liked it. I don't have any printables for this one, but all you have to do is write down little riddles on slips of paper, leaving them at a couple of spots in the house. The last, of course, led to their treat. For their treat, I made a black velvet bag and filled it with gold coins, and had a shamrock coloring page. I wish I could find the bags I made, but maybe I'll throw together a sewing tutorial for one!! That would be fun!!
St. Patty's Day Scavenger Hunt Part 2: Have your littles search out different things that can be associated with St. Patrick's Day: rainbows, colors (ie gold, green). They'll have fun, and get a prize at the end!
St. Patty's Day Jewelry: I have some large beads somewhere, that the boys will love using to make some green and gold necklaces or bracelets for their friends, or even themselves!
