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.

Easter Egg Decorating Idea # 2 – Doodled Eggs

Doodling on Easter Eggs

Easter is one of my favorite holidays and I have such fond memories of decorating eggs with my mom and then enjoying the huge Easter egg hunts at Granny’s house with all of my many cousins. This year I wanted to find some more creative Easter egg decorating ideas, although I am sure we will dye eggs as well, the kids will demand it! Did you see the beautiful papier mache eggs that Maggie and I made in Egg Decorating Idea #1?
