St. Patrick’s Day Tot School

No matter what age you are it’s always fun to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with a little bit of green.  We had the chance this week to get together with many of our friends at local parks and in homes to celebrete the fun.  Here’s are some of my favorite Activities from the week at Tot school.

St. Patrick’s Day Activities for Tot School

Green Sensory Box
Go on a hunt around your home and find all the green toys you have and create a geen sensory box.  Include a word card for the word green.

Green Animal Sort
Look through all the animals in your house and find the green animals.  Include a word card for each green animal in the game.

Qtip Painting with Green
Using two seperate shades of green allow your child to paint with green.  At the end you could even cut it into a shamrock shape if they wanted to. 

Shamrock Paper Tear
Using Green strips of paper have your child tear the paper and glue onto a shamrock.  This is great for fine motor skills. 

 

Gold Search
Using gold coins or gold painted stones go on a treasure hunt for gold.  This makes a great counting activity when you’re all done.  Create a math with circle for the coins with the numbers abovce it. 

Green Beading
Using  pipe cleaners and green and white beads allow your child to practice beading to make their own necklace or bracelet.  This works their fine motor and vision skills. 

Shamrock Hunt
Go out into the yard or park and search for clovers.  Bring a container with you for them to collect the plants into.
