We celebrated St. Patrick's Day all morning long today. We started off with some rainbow finger painting, which became rainbow body painting, followed by a rainbow bath.
Is this what St. Patrick looked like?
Then we had a treasure hunt; Irish gold!
Micaiah found 1 coin and was pretty proud of himself.
Dried and finished paintings.
"The Story of St. Patrick: More Than Just Shamrocks and Leprechauns."
My husband ordered this book a week ago and we didn't think it would arrive on time. When the delivery guy rang my doorbell with the package in hand, I was so excited! I was actually going to read the real story on the holiday after all! So, during lunch I read to the boys of how St. Patrick brought Christianity to Ireland long ago. It was the highlight of my day.
Renae you have such awesome ideas!
