St. Patrick’s Day crafts, recipes, and more for kids!

March 15, 2011 by Melissa

I have been so caught up in my excitement over spring break that I hadn’t even been thinking about St. Patrick’s Day! Growing up, every “holiday” in my house was a big deal and we had different traditions and activities for different holidays. I have tried to do the same for my kids, but I admit that St. Patrick’s Day always seems to sneak up on me!

If it has snuck up on you, too, here are some fun ideas from around the blogosphere to entertain your kids!

One of my personal favorites was this idea for a leprechaun-themed scavenger hunt from Green Lily Designs.

RECIPES:

Green mashed potatoes – have a little fun with your kids while getting them to eat some “good” stuff, too. This green mashed potatoes recipe from The Thrifty Gourmet includes peas instead of food coloring! This one from Chaya’s Comfy Cook uses broccoli!

Green caramel corn – This green caramel corn from Find Your Happiness is a treat I think everyone in my family will get excited about

Rainbow cupcakes – I just love these cupcakes that were featured in Family Fun Magazine. You can find the recipe here.

CRAFTS:

Torn Paper Shamrock – From Free Kid Crafts ~ totally budget friendly! All you need is construction paper, a pencil, and glue!

Paper Bag Leprechaun Puppet – Here’s another one from Free Kid Crafts. My kids are totally going to love this one. Needed supplies include a brown (I guess you could use white, too) lunch bag, scissors, glue, construction paper, wiggle eyes, and crayons.

Coloring pages – Here are some St. Patrick’s Day themed printable coloring pages from DLTK.

Walmart: toddler PJ sets only $4 each!

March 15, 2011 by Melissa

My kids had outgrown most of their PJs and now that we’re moving into spring, we needed PJs with short sleeves anyway. Right now, Walmart.com has several boy and girl PJ sets (there are two pairs in each package) on clearance for $8. That makes them just $4 per pair! I ordered some last week and they got here really fast and I was impressed with the quality, too! They don’t have a “ship to store” option on these, but shipping is just $.97, so it’s still a great deal!

Here’s how you can take advantage of this deal:

1. Log into your Shop at Home account here – you’ll get 3% cash back when you shop through Shop at Home. If you don’t have a Shop at Home account yet, you can create one here and you’ll get a $5 bonus for signing up! If you aren’t familiar with cash back sites like Shop at Home, check out this post here.

2. Search for Walmart and click on the blue “Shop Now” button

3. When you get to Walmart’s website, you’ll find the clearanced boy PJs here and the clearanced girl PJs here. Sadly, they are only available in infant/toddler sizes.
