Shamrock Crafts for Kids

by Minette Riordan

Moms need their craft time, too! The drawing above is one done using a compass, Shamrock Template and a round earring used to draw the scallops. The Shamrock was colored with watercolor pencils and markers.  The designs are called Zentangle patterns. Zentagle-inspired art has been an obsession of mine for a while now! You can learn more about this fun and meditative art form at  Zentangle.com.  This is fun to do with your kids. Kids adore creating patterns. At TanglePatterns.com you will find enough patterns to keep you and your kids happy for months!

Here’s a round-up of other shamrock kids crafts I found online.

Easy Thanksgiving Craft for Kids – Paper Cup Turkey

paper cup turkey - thanksgiving craft

This paper cup turkey craft is an easy Thanksgiving craft for kids and cute enough to use as a decoration on your Thanksgiving table or your mantle. This is kind of a messy craft (what else would kids want?) so make sure your work area is covered with something and that your kids have on clothes that you don’t mind them getting paint on.

Car Bingo: Perfect for Road Trips

For a long car trip out of the city – make multiple sheets of the car bingo for everyone in the car (even the driver can play, just have someone else mark off their items for them!) Make sure you make enough copies so you can play a new game on the way home! The object is to see/find as many items on the sheet before you get to your destination. When you see an item, call it out and mark it off on your sheet. The first person to spot the item and yell it out gets to mark it off their sheet (good to have a witness for this part!)
