Toddler Rainbow Craft for St. Patricks Day

St. Patrick's day is March 17th so its approaching quickly. I have a few ideas on art and food projects that i want to do with the kiddos. Hopefully I will have enough time to complete them and share them with you.

This was a super easy one for those little hands. I cut the stripes of colored paper but if you are working with a preschooler or school aged child then they can practice cutting. The two toddler boys here only had to glue the pieces on their piece of paper. EASY, but they enjoyed it! :) This is also a great craft for anyone doing ADHD parenting, as it’s simple to explain and can give you a break while the kids enjoy the process.

It sure has brightened my kitchen with them hanging on the fridge! :)

I also talked more about the Promise God gave us with the rainbow since I know that history a whole lot better then the history of the Irish Holiday!
