St. Patricks Day Celebration

Aunt Tami's Leprechauns!

"Catch the Leprechaun" game was played first.  
Mr. Leprechaun was hiding through the play room
 and each child had to find one.
Pot of Gold craft was made with Corn Puffs.
The kids glued the "Gold" on top of the pot.


Mr. Leprechaun also left a treat for the kids.  
Inside the treat were 'gold coins'.
Leprechaun bags were made to take the Leprechaun snack home.
Mr. Leprechaun left cupcakes for snack time.

A Leprechaun song was sung while dancing an Irish Jig, 
which mainly consisted of just jumping up and down.
Mr. Leprechaun left a surprise too.
After lunch, Green Ice Cream was served!



HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!

Lions, Lambs and Leprechauns


Today we played a game related to March coming in like a Lion and going out like a Lamb.
 I cut out small pictures of lions, lambs and leprechauns.
Put the pieces in a bag.
Have a child pull out one item at a time.
If it's a Lion - ROAR
If it's a Lamb - BAAA
If it's a Leprechaun - LEAP

This project was a fun game for the children.
They colored the lambs head and pasted it onto the top of construction paper.  
Then they glued the box of letters under the lamb. 

 I cut out the letters into individual squares.
  I showed the children how match the square letters on to their lamb paper.
