You have many ways to let a special someone know you are thinking of them. We feel Saint Patrick's Day is a great excuse for crafting with kids – and making a little “thinking of you” for Grandma.
If you start now, you’ll have in in plenty of time for St. Patrick's day: Thursday, March 17.
Here are some ideas to pique the imagination.
1.) Hearts And Crafts
Go.com offers a way to make St. Patty's day stamps by using heart shaped cookie cutters. (And you thought you were done using those hearts from Valentine's Day!) You’ll need some potatoes, though, so be sure to have a few handy.
2.) Shamrock Love
Most kids love the process of cutting with scissors, especially if you provide shapes to cut out. Find some green construction paper and trace out some shamrocks. After the kids cut out a shamrock, glue it to a wooden popsicle stick. Then, decorate the shamrock with paint, glitter or any other notions you have around the house.
3.) St. Patrick's Coloring Pages
