  • Check out genealogy or family history to learn about any Irish blood lines.
  • Share about the famous Ireland potato famine
  • Learn about Irish cultural traditions, foods and drinks
  • Listen to or watch a traditional Celtic ceremony, dance, music, or wedding
  • Print Celtic coloring pages for you and the kids to color while talking about Irish traditions
  • Create a geography lesson to share about important cities, landmarks and historical monuments in Ireland
  • Practice your Irish “brogue” to see who can sound the most authentic

Doing these fun things along with the St. Patrick's Day crafts, recipes, and projects to learn more about the origins of St. Patrick's Day and the Irish culture can give you and your children a great homeschool project for the entire week.  

Encourage not only lessons about these things, but also talk of rainbows, prisms, and the mythical leprechaun.  There are so many amazing lessons around this fun holiday!
