Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with these easy crafts for kids
It’s finally March, which means it’s about time to celebrate the luck of the Irish! Whether you’re looking for an easy craft or want to make something more elaborate, we’ve got plenty of St. Patrick’s Day crafts to keep kids busy this weekend. From cute little leprechauns to rainbow-colored treats, we’ve got you covered with these fun DIY projects.
If you’re looking for an easy project that will keep kids busy this weekend, start by making some adorable little leprechauns! These tiny stuffed dolls are perfect for any age — and they’re super simple to make. Just grab some felt, embroidery floss or yarn and a few buttons, then use the pattern below to cut out your leprechaun body parts and sew them together (or glue them). Once they’re all sewn together, stuff them with a little bit of stuffing before sewing their faces on with embroidery floss or yarn. And voila! You have yourself an adorable little leprechaun friend that’ll look great hanging around your house on St. Patrick’s Day (or any other day).
St. Patrick’s Day is just a few weeks away, and if you’re like us, you’re probably still looking for the perfect craft to make with the kiddos. We’ve rounded up our favorite St. Paddy’s Day crafts that are fun to make and easy on the budget!
Materials:
Construction paper (green)
Yellow puffy paint (or yellow sharpie)
Brown puffy paint (or brown sharpie)
Green pipe cleaners
small beads or buttons (optional)
Directions:
- Cut out two shamrocks from green construction paper. You can download our free shamrock template here.
- Color in one of the leaf sections (see photo above). This is where we recommend using yellow puffy paint or a yellow sharpie marker rather than brown because it gives it that bright color! You can also use brown paint or marker if you want them to look more realistic but we prefer the bright colors for this project!
- On the other leaf section, draw around three small circles as shown in our photo above to create a clover shape. Then cut out these circles using scissors so that they are circular shapes instead of just dots on paper! Place these clovers onto your shamrocks as
