St. Patrick's Day Activities for the Family

WESTLAND, Mich.–– St. Patrick's day is this Thursday which means it's time for some fun! This holiday isn't just for adults and the Irish, it's a great opportunity for kids and families alike. Get them all involved with some crafts and activities for a very fun, green day. As you might already know this day is all about Irish food and traditions, good luck, rainbows and pots o' gold, and the mischievous and mysterious leprechaun. Let's go green with these St. Patrick's Day activities for the family.

Leprechaun Tricks

These little tricks are so easy to do and the little ones love it. Seeing the chaos the Leprechaun caused throughout the house only adds to the mystery of this creature. He only shows up one night per year to cause mischief, so make it fun! 

Enjoy an Irish Dinner

Try this hearty, comforting, and warm Irish stew on for size! You can cook this meal together by having each person gather up ingredients. While the meal is cooking, take time to talk about the importance of other cultures and look up fun facts about St. Patrick and Ireland. 

Enjoy a Green Dessert

Again, you can make a green dessert together. There are plenty of options for desserts you can make, especially because green food coloring exists! Try out these mint marshmallow brownies for a truly decadent dessert for a special occasion.
