It’s the You’ve Been Booed of March. Pass on a bit of Irish luck to friends with this printable St. Patrick’s Day Tradition. Pass a sweet treat or pot of chocolate gold coins with a You’ve Been Shamrocked printable activity for St. Patty’s Day!

printable saint patrick's day tradition printable

Saint Patrick’s Day is an Irish holiday that has taken over America. Celebrated annually on March 17th, it is a celebration symbolized by the color green, Shamrocks, Leprechauns, cabbage peer, and gold coins.

Let’s take a look at a few traditions for St. Patty’s day. In addition, using our printable St. Patrick’s Day worksheet, see how you can celebrate the gift of St. Patrick with friends and family.

St. Patrick’s Day Facts

St Patricks Day facts with fun st Patricks day tradition

Let’s not get confused. With our printable St. Patrick’s Day tradition printable, I am not here to spill a bunch of St. Patty’s facts.

I don’t plan to tell you…

  • St. Patrick is the Patron Saint of Ireland. March 17 is a religious holiday in Ireland.
  • Saint Patrick was not Irish! He was from Great Britain.
  • On the Irish flag, green stands for Catholics, orange for protestants, and white for wish and harmony.
  • The folklore of St. Patrick banishing snakes from Ireland is false. There are no fossil records of snakes to support these legends.
  • The Chicago River has been dyed green for St. Patrick’s Day since 1962. The green river makes the city come alive every year through Irish Americans (and the  non-Irish too – wink!)
  • The Shamrock was considered a sacred plant that symbolized the arrival of spring. Four-leaf clovers are considered lucky.
  • The first, St. Patrick’s Day parade was held on March 17, 1601, in St. Augustine, Florida.
  • Ireland is known as the “Green Isle” or the “Emerald Isle.”

No, I am not here to tell you any of those fun St. Patrick’s Day facts. In fact, on this fun St. Patty’s Day printable, you won’t find any of those historical St. Patrick’s Day facts. Instead, you will get a really fun activity for the kids to do on March 17th.

What are some St. Patrick’s Day Traditions?

what are st patricks day traditions plus printable st patricks day activity

Before we get started on this super fun activity, let’s talk about a few traditions for St. Patrick’s Day. These traditions are typically held by many Americans who don’t even know the history and facts of the Irish holiday. However, there are many fun ways to embrace the traditions of Irish Culture in America.

Wear Green

You must wear green or get pinched! Who truly understands this wearing of the green pinch tradition, just wear the color.

Eat Irish Food

If you really want to celebrate St. Patty’s Day, you must eat an Irish meal. In North America, this typically consists of corned beef and cabbage. You can also try Irish soda bread, beer soup, food dyed green, or one of these many St. Patrick’s Day food ideas.

St. Patricks Day Parade

In some cities, you might find a St. Patrick’s Day Parade. If this doesn’t happen on the 17th of March, look for festivities the weekend ahead or after the exact date. Popular cities to watch a parade and celebrate the Irish people’s holiday are Boston, Chicago, New York City, Philadelphia, Cleveland, and Savannah.

Drink Beer

I don’t know why but did you really need a reason for a pint of Guinness to be a fun St. Patrick’s Day tradition? Beer sales worldwide increase by 174%, making it the busiest time of the year for several bars and pubs in the United States and Ireland.  Some pubs will even dye green beer. Celebrate in a bar or at home and incorporate a few pints with a beer flight tasting sheet plus a few fun Beer Games.

Catch a Leprechaun

The kids can participate by making their own leprechaun trap. Of course, ad an adult, we know he can never be trapped but left behind can be a few gold chocolate coins at the of a St. Patrick’s Day Treasure hunt.

Now on to the fun. Let’s make a new St. Patrick’s Day Tradition with family and friends. Get ready to spread shamrocks just like a little leprahucn.

Are you still with me after all those boring facts?

Coffee Lover Gift Idea: Illusion Coffee Cups

Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day will be here before we know it. It’s never too early to start looking for gifts. If you have someone n your life who loves coffee, these Illusion Coffee Cups are SO COOL and would be a really neat gift that they will love! The illusions these have are too cool – like the design on the saucer and cups are one fluid picture.

There are several different series that you can choose from. The On Flowers Series includes a wavy saucer and straight mirror cup with different birds and butterflies on flowers. When you put the cup on the saucer, it creates the illusion of one image connected. The Warbler Mug Set is one of my favorites. It’s so pretty!

I’m also loving the Toucan Mug Set. The colors are so vibrant and fun, and who doesn’t love toucans?!

The Locomotion Series is probably my favorite. As you turn your cup, it looks like the image is moving. How cool is that?! There are two options available, like the Horse Mug Set that appears like the horse is running on your cup.

There is also a really neat Bird Mug Set that looks like a bird is flying!

Help raise awareness about endangered or vulnerable animals by purchasing one of the mugs from the Endangered Species Series. One of my favorites in this series is the Polar Bear Mug Set!

Do you love giraffes? You’ll want to grab the Rothschild Giraffe Mug Set for yourself.

The last series is the Homage Series. This takes renowned paintings and symbolic images and match them to the cup and saucer, like this Dance Mug Set. Put the cup on the saucer and rotate the entire thing, and you’ll see the image reflected on the mug.

  • Do this for your spouse, sweetheart, or significant other. This is the perfect time to speak their love language with thoughtful gifts or Valentine’s day coupon booklet.  Use conversation hearts for fun messages.

After you have printed out the game, you can actually leave extra copies of the printable note and labels for the person to arrow someone else! This is fun because it helps spread even more joy to those during this season of love and compassion!
