There are multiple ways to celebrate this fun for kids on St. Patrick’s Day. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Utah offers numerous volunteer opportunities in Utah for anyone looking to put a smile on a kid’s face during this year’s celebrations. Here are 5 top craft ideas that’ll let you incorporate green, Gold, and rainbow-hued art.

Lucky Leprechaun Box

Leprechauns’ characters have close associations with St. Patrick’s Day. You could create a customized special keepsake box that kids can use beyond this season. The kids can use this fun box for candy, chocolate gold coins, or anything they like. 

Pot o’ Gold

Craft an eventful game that requires kids to find the Irish pot of Gold. Fill a chest with candy pads and excite children with a treasure hunt for St. Patrick’s Day. Provide multiple clues for the young ones to play this game repeatedly. Add your spin to this game to suit other special occasions.

Mischievous Elf

Create an excellent spin on the “elf on a shelf” with this fun homemade art. This adorable leprechaun will fit perfectly atop a shelf or bookcase. Once made, let the kids take turns hiding them so that others can find them.

Four-Leaf Clovers

The handmade four-leaf clover is an excellent fun activity once you find your preferred volunteer activities in Utah. Go through ten quick steps as you make luck shamrocks with children. Trace the children’s handprints onto construction paper, cut them out, and arrange them into a four-leaf clover shape.

Shamrock Necklace

St. Patrick’s Day shamrock necklaces will make them perfect for kids during the festivities. Let them decorate and make these necklaces with their specific designs. You could also decorate each shamrock before sticking them to the string or shoelace.
