Creative St. Patrick's Day Ideas

by

St. Patrick’s Day, March 17, is a great opportunity to create family memories with fun and festivities, celebrate Irish heritage and enjoy a little “green” fun.  Here are some fun ideas for celebrating at home or around town!

Celebrate at Home!

Follow the Rainbow: Create a trail of chocolate coins, paper shamrocks or rainbows for the children to follow from their bedrooms to the breakfast table. Lead them to a breakfast of green scrambled eggs, green pancakes, and green milk. A touch of food coloring will do the trick for each of these delicacies. At each place setting, leave a St. Patrick’s Day treat or small gift.

Host a Gold Coin Hunt: Using gold chocolate coins, Chuck E. Cheese tokens, or Susan B. Anthony Dollars, host a “hunt” at your house to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. Top off the fun with a visit to Chuck E. Cheese or the Dollar Store where the kids can redeem their loot!

Celebrate with a Green Menu: Green Jell-O, green juice, green grapes, green Sandwiches (use food safe markers sold in the bakery aisle to decorate your sandwiches), green mashed potatoes, salad, and green soup or pasta.
