St. Patrick’s Day Activities for Kids

>>Follow along with the 7 Days of St. Patrick’s Day Printables for Kids series!<<

Did you have a lot of interest in St. Patrick’s Day before you had kids? Sure, the drinking aspect may have seemed fun at one point, so maybe it’s just me and the fact that I didn’t spend any of my childhood or much of my young drinking age in the US, but St. Patrick’s Day wasn’t really all that interesting to me before I had kids.

Today, all those shamrocks and rainbows and pots of gold are definitely fun for my kids, though, and I’m more than happy to come up with St. Patrick’s Day activities for them to participate in their own way.

This is the first year I’ve done so, but this short, yet fun list is sure to grow over the years!
