I never heard about Saint Patricks day growing up, well not that I remember. In fact I only came across this after I returned to the UK having lived in New Zealand for 13 years.
I still don't know much about Saint Patricks if I am entirely honest.
What I do know is that every year I see Saint Patricks Day recipes, Rainbow crafts, green crafts, leprechaun crafts and shamrocks.
Today I am sharing a simple hand shamrock craft that is easy and fun to do with little ones.
Supplies for Your Shamrock Craft
- Green and white craft paper
- Green pipe cleaner
