Are you getting your green ready for Thursday and planning an Irish meal in honor of St. Patrick’s Day?
Little Miss Techie has already picked out an outfit that features green and is excited to make Irish Soda Bread from a cooking club recipe to go with our corned beef, cabbage, and tiniest potatoes!
If you are looking for information about the history of St. Patrick’s Day and fun activities for young learners, visit my LeapFrog Community post called Integrating Reading, Math, Art, Movement, and More into St. Patrick’s Day where I’ve compiled a collection of links that will appeal to different ages and learning styles.
Since publishing my LeapFrog post, I’ve found more St. Patrick’s Day fun to share:
- Scholastic Parents shares a fantastic collection of St. Patrick’s Day picture books and has directions for making your own Blarney Stone.
- Amy Mascott shares a Brighten-Your-Day Rainbow Mobile on PBS Parents. Just add your own pot of gold at one end!
- Naturally Educational’s Candace Lindemann shares books and rainbow crafts in her She’s Like a Rainbow post. Also check out Rainbow Connection for a tissue paper rainbow craft and educational connections to rainbows.
- Parents of babies and toddlers will also like Candace’s St. Patrick’s Day for Wee Folk on The LeapFrog Community.
What are your favorite ways to teach your kids and celebrate St. Patrick’s Day?
