How To Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day With Your Kids
Every holiday is a chance to have fun and celebrate with your kids. Here are some fun tips on How To Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day With Your Kids. From the moment they wake up until time to go to bed, they will love being little leprechauns in your house!
Decorate their bedroom door. Before your kids get up on St. Patrick’s Day, decorate their bedroom door with green or rainbow colored streamers. This is a fun way for them to wake up and know it is a special day.
Serve green pancakes and milk. For breakfast, do something fun like putting a few drops of green food coloring into milk or pancake batter to serve a green-themed breakfast. Even a dash of green sugar on their toast is a fun way to dress up breakfast in a fun themed way.
Send a rainbow lunch. Pack their lunch with the colors of the rainbow. Red grapes, green kiwi, orange cheese, and other fun simple snacks that represent the colors of the rainbow. This is a great fun way to give them a fun bento style lunch they will love.
Go on a scavenger hunt for the pot of gold. Hide a small black kettle with gold chocolate coins in your home. Create fun clues to send your kids on a scavenger hunt for the pot of gold. This can be a great way to get them excited about St. Patrick’s Day and being your own leprechaun.
Attend local parades or celebrations. There are often fun holiday celebrations that are family friendly. Check your local community calendar for events at kids museums, local restaurants or other community event centers.
Serve rainbow cookies or cake with dinner. There are tons of ways to make rainbow colored desserts. Layered gelatin, rainbow cakes, cookies or even puddings are all fun and easy to make. This is a great way to end your special day in a fun way.
One of the best parts of parenting comes with sharing fun celebrations with your kids. Use our basic tips on how to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with your kids this year to create lasting memories. They will love that you have gone out of your way to create a fun day for them.

We’re not Irish, so we don’t celebrate it. I think the kids do some stuff in school, though.
We do not really celebrate but we eat corned beef and mash.. on rye bread with mustard.. mm i am thinking about that now.
We never really do the green food. If I can remember I will plan ahead this year and do some “green eggs and ham”
Good ideas! I especially like the one to decorate their doors!
These are really good ideas. I think I might make green pancakes and milk and surprise my husband and son.
That would be so fun! I might have to do that myself.
My 7 year old loves to decorate for every holiday and I am going to decorate her bedroom door I love that idea and make green pancakes and check out local events Bella has been looking forward to Saint Patty’s day because she has a outfit that says Do not pinch me as she’s a redhead lol
What great ideas. We don’t usually celebrate Patty’s day but it would be fun!
These is a great list of ideas. I love the rainbow lunch
Part of my family always goes to the local St. Patrick’s Day parade. They make a whole day out of it.
These are great ideas. I might have to make green pancakes for the kids. 🙂
We really get into it. We play games and make a leprechaun trap. And of course, the food it big too!
Aww I should send a rainbow lunch. I think that’s a fun idea!
I can just picture the look on my kids’ faces if I served them green food. LOL!
We usually don’t do anything for St Patrick’s day. But this all sounds so fun, I may see what I can do this year!
Our celebration consists of stuffing ourselves with a good corned beef and cabbage dinner.
What some fantastic ideas, I don’t actually do anything to celebrate St Patrick’s Day – always used to send my Gran a card but that was it.
What great selections! We really do not celebrate St. Patty’s day but I am sure my kids would love these ideas!
I love these ideas. What great ways to get kids excited about St. Patrick’s Day.
I want some rainbow cake! I wanna attempt to make one in the future 😛
My son loves scavenger hunts! We’ll be doing it again this year. 🙂
What a great list of ideas. We have a fairy garden in our house, so they tend to bring forth some leprechaun shenanigans.
These look like some great tips. I know my kids would get a kick out of green pancakes.
These are the sweetest things to do with kids. I will have to incorporate these ideas.
