St. Patrick's Day Fun

So Glad to Be Able To Share These Resources with You in a Time of Need. We Can All Be Helpers in Some Way!

*Please note this is out of kindness and a work in progress - as I just like you had not planned for any of this to happen. Thank you in advance for your patience as I slowly add resources here for you to use for FREE :) Just starting on it now!

I will be updating these pages and links as regularly as I can - so please keep checking back!

These lessons are in the order that I would be teaching to my in person 3 day class ... so if you are a family from outside the preschool, you may not follow right away at first since it's not the beginning of the year, but you will catch on fast in a day or two, I'm sure.

(If you have questions, I will do my best to answer them at jennifer@youaremysunshinepreschool.com.)

st. patrick's day allows for lots of fun!

MORE VIDEOS AND RESOURCES WILL BE ADDED TODAY, BUT I DECIDED TO SHARE WHAT I HAVE SO FAR :)

Make Leprchaun Traps!

Whether your child already has made one or not...more leprechaun traps can always be fun.

All you need is an empty box, other recyclable materials, leftover craft supplies, and some tape.

We enjoy things from around the house like cans, toilet paper/paper towel rolls, jar lids, anything green/sparkly/shiny/rainbow.

TONS of ideas around the web on ways to build.
SOME PINTEREST IDEAS HERE

See the links below for a story talking about building traps.

For Parents:

Make everything green with food coloring!
Water, toilet bowls, anything you can think of can be turned green,
Kids absolutely LOVE this!

Leprechauns like to be tricky and make messes and move things around. Have some FUN!

SCIENCE ACTIVITY

Make green or rainbow volcanoes!

All you need is some baking soda, vinegar, and food coloring.
If you make them in small containers, the fun can go on for a while!

I always like to throw in a little bit of science, too, and teach the kids that these are chemical reactions (when two or more things come together to make something new!).

Other fun ideas:

Finger paint shamrock shaped paper
Paint or color rainbows
Follow a trail of glitter to a treasure in the backyard
Green sidewalk chalk outside
