Easy St. Patrick’s Day Art for Toddlers

Easy St. Patrick’s Day Art for Toddlers Today I’m sharing two super easy St. Patrick’s Day art for toddlers ideas. You’ll be able to find the sheets that I used in my Simple St. Patrick’s Day Coloring, Matching and Puzzles Pack or in my St. Patrick’s Day Printable Pack . I’m hesitant to call this Tot School just yet as we aren’t integrating anything else into it (shapes, colors, letters)… plus Squeaker will only be 15 months on March 5th (2015), so I wouldn’t expect for her to be ready for some of the other stuff I have planned for Tot School.

Books About St. Patrick’s Day for Kids

To keep with the St. Patrick’s Day theme (after covering recipes and crafts) or if you’re planning on studying Ireland, here are 20+ books about St. Patrick’s Day for kids.

Simple St. Patrick’s Day Sensory Bin for Toddlers

We finally got everything in to make our first sensory bin and it was well worth the wait!

I kept the contents simple but themed because it’s a St. Patrick’s Day sensory bin, though we might rotate some stuff out or put some new stuff in and just change it to a “green” sensory bin when we start our unit on colors. Still, we were able to get in a few things before she lost interest. We talked about the textures, shook the bin for sound, and counted coins. Squeaker loves to explore everything so…

Simple St. Patrick’s Day Printable Pack

I’m going to start something new with the printable packs that I create. First, I’ll share a simple version and then I’ll have the expanded version. The simple version will usually just feature an activity or two. This one, for example, is all about coloring pages. I hope that you enjoy my simple St. Patrick’s Day printable pack and be sure to look for the expanded version soon. You can see a few pages of the pack in action in my Simple St. Patrick’s Day Art Ideas for Toddlers. We finger painted and use Do a Dot markers but you can use whatever materials you like for this coloring pack. By downloading this pack, you are agreeing to my Terms of Use, whether you have…
