St. Patrick’s Day is around the bend, and we have a ton of St. Patrick’s Day crafts that we’ve done over the years, but I chose some St. Patrick’s Day crafts to showcase. These projects aren’t just filled with leprechaun magic; like everything you find here at No Time For Flash Cards, these preschool activities help your child develop and learn while having fun and enjoying holiday-themed activities. Choose a few of these St. Patrick’s Day crafts and activities to do with your children or add to your lesson plans for your preschool class.

Love these ideas! We’ve made a rainbow craft, but other than that, we haven’t done any St. Patrick’s day crafts. I love the texture collage shamrock… I think we may make those this week!
