St. Patrick's Day Breakfast

No I'm not Irish but I love any reason to have a party or celebrate!

So don't forget to grab a box of Lucky Charm Cereal while at the grocery store. This is an easy way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day before the kids go to school.




I remember when I sent Tyler to kindergarten on St. Patrick's Day. I thought I had it all together because I remembered to send him wearing green. Well, when he came home he was a little sad because the Leprechaun hadn't visited our home the night before like some of the other kid's homes (apparently the Leprechaun left them gold chocolate candy coins and turned the toilet water green). Really, who knew? I'm Italian and I married a Swedish/German guy! St. Patrick's Day always meant to me - you better wear green or you'll get pinched!


Here are some of the fun things my Fish Heads have done for St. Patrick's day in school:


- Make Leprecheun catchers. And if your Leprecheun is really sneaky he'll escape your trap and leave chocolate gold coins.


-Make Leprecheun finding looking glasses out of empty paper towel rolls and green cellophane. Then go on a walk throughout the school looking for little Leprecheuns.


-While the students are on their walk looking for Leprecheun's the teachers or we room moms come and tip over their chairs and leave little footprints (using flour) and leave gold coins in the student's Leprecheun catchers.
