St. Patrick's Day Arts and Crafts for Kids Make a shamrock collage. Cut a good size shamrock out of construction
paper or poster board. I prefer poster board. Supply glue, scissors,
pain, paint brushes, beads, leaves, yarn, ribbon, stickers, crayons,
or markers all in green. Let kids glue down all their chosen green items.
More arts and crafts projects below. You'll need: green cardstock Shamrock Wand
You'll need: green card stock or craft foam sheets 1. Paint wood skewer green, white or both. Let dry
2. Cut two shamrocks shapes out of green card stock or foam sheet. An easy way to do this is: with a pencil draw or trace a heart shape then repeat the heart shape at an angle on the left and right of the center heart having the bottom points match up so that the side hearts would be on their sides. This will give you a shamrock shape. Erase inside pencil lines and cut out.
3. With paint, glitter and beads decorate one side of each shamrock
and let dry.
4. Cut ribbon to use as streamers
5. Place one shamrock decorated side down hot glue skewer pointed side up onto the back of shamrock then glue ribbon strands on back.
6. Hot glue the other shamrock decorated side up to other shamrock and skewer as to make a sandwich this creates a two sided decorated wand.
7. String beads onto some or all of ribbon streamers. Tie a knot at
end of ribbon to secure beads.
St. Patrick's stuffed snake
You'll need:an adult tub sock 1. Take sock and stuff full getting thinner toward the opening or the "tail end."
2. With rubber bands secure and close socks. For a rattle snake effect use several rubber bands spread out a little at the tail end of the snake.
3. Glue on eyes, glue yarn or ribbon as tongue.
4. Color and decorate the snake
