Graduation is a special time to celebrate the accomplishments of the graduate. It’s also a time for family and friends to come together and enjoy each other’s company. If you’re looking for some graduation party games or creative ideas, we’ve got you covered.

Graduation parties can sometimes feel like anything but a celebration. Guests tend to break off into their age groups, chat, and eat a few appetizers. The younger crowd might stand around in the backyard laughing and snacking. There’s usually a divide in the group that doesn’t feel like a good time.

Whether you’re celebrating high school graduation, preschool graduation, kindergarten graduation or even a college graduation, we have some fun ideas that will get guests of all ages interacting and having a blast.

Backyard Graduation Party Ideas

If the weather is nice, expanding your party to include the outdoors, is a great way to have a little more space when planning a graduation party at home. A backyard graduation party theme can be decorated in such a cute way too!

Hang those adorable lights, circle up some chairs, and make cozy spaces for your guests to gather. You might even want to set up a fire pit or use a pop-up tent to set the area up for an outdoor party.

More of the best outdoor graduation party ideas include…

Graduation Party Decorations

The first thing to consider when staging a party is the graduation party décor. it doesn’t have to be difficult and you can decorate with things you have like your grad’s gown, cap and tassel. Also create a table of photos throughout the life of your grad. School photos could finally be put to great use. Balloon garland is pretty trendy and can easily be found online. It makes the perfect backdrop an a really cute graduation party decoration. Black, gold and white are a perfect color pallet or show some school spirit and use your school colors.

Photo Booth

Memories are kept best when captured on camera. You don’t have to spend a fortune and hire a party photographer. Instead, create your own DIY graduation photo booth with a few graduation photo booth props.

Music

Of course adding a karaoke machine, dance floor and band could be quite fun, but you can keep it simple with a graduation party playlist. Don’t spend too much time on this. Using Spotify, Apple Music or Amazon Music should quickly create a playlist for you. Ten songs you will definitely want to include to your graduation party playlist are…

However, this celebration has a theme! If you want to stick to the graduation theme, take a look at our popular 11 Graduation Party Games. They are sure to stand out and offer something unique and memorable.

Graduation Party Games

Now that your space looks great, let’s talk activities. Planning graduation party games that get your guests up and interacting is a great way to make your party a memorable one.

Here are some fun grad party games that will keep your guests entertained:

Diploma Relay Race

This game is perfect for a backyard graduation party! Have guests form groups of two and get into a line shoulder to shoulder. Place a diploma between the pair, and race to get across the finish line fastest. Drop the diploma, and you have to go back to the start. Oh did we mention, this is a game where you can’t use your hands? Better get creative!

Toast to the Grad

Is it even a backyard party without an obstacle course game? In this speed test, players will race with their wine glass filled with water around the obstacles to be the team who fills their bucket the fastest. Be sure to have plenty of towels on hand!

Name That Tune

Take a walk down memory lane as guests try to guess songs from the graduate’s years in school. This game is perfect for those who love to sing along and don’t want to get as active.

Memory Bank

This might be the best part of your party… Gather up the tissues and have each guest fill out a great memory they have of the graduate. Have the grad read through the cards and try to guess who wrote each one.

This is also a great way to gather cards that the graduate can read later or even take with them as they move into their new stage. If you prefer, you can do words of wisdom instead. You really can’t go wrong with either idea!

Pass the Parcel

This game is so fun if you are generous with the Saran Wrap parcel party favors. Fill your plastic wrap ball with full size candy bars, smarties candy, and a great prize in the center. The winner has the ball at the end of the game once all the layers have been removed.

The Key to Success

This game is quite tasty. If you have heard of a pie eating contest, you will love this game. Fill a pan with shaving cream and dig around the find the key… but guess what!?! Your hands are behind your back.

Dip-Low-Ma

Grab some balloons and see if you can keep them in the air! Dip it low and pick it up slow… man, I feel on a roll with throwback songs. I mean, if you hare a graduation playlist, this is a song to add and play during this fun game. Include more songs that fit the graduation year and theme and add them to the Name that Tune party game.

Are you Smarter than a Grad?

Alright smarty pants! This game is adults vs the kids. From pop culture to academic questions, see if which generation can declare they are smarter. The winners will get the most correct answers.

Charades

Split up into teams with an equal amount of players. In this classic game, similar to Taboo or forbidden words, act out themed words and see if your teammate can guess the word.

Steal the Cap

Divide players again. This is a perfect outdoor party games. Similar to steal the bacon, steal the grad cap (or baseball cap).

Don’t Drop the Tassel

In this fun game, pass a graduation caps tassel from the first player to the next. Split players in equal teams and get the tassel from the front of the line to the back. What’s the catch? You can’t use your hands. You will need a spoon in this silly game.

It’s a jungle out there! Don’t get lost in the overgrown vines preparing for this special occasion. Enjoy these easy jungle party ideas and safari themed birthday party inspiration. Overlap the two for the best birthday party for your child. Get the wild party started.

So, you’re planning a party for your little monkey, and you’ve decided on a jungle or safari theme. Great idea! This is a popular theme for many reasons—it’s super cute, easy to pull off yourself, and can be pretty affordable if you do most of the décor and food yourself.

In this post, we’ll share lots of ideas that will help make your child’s birthday party a roaring success. From animal-inspired decorations to fun games and activities, we have everything you need to plan the perfect jungle-themed celebration. So get ready to unleash your inner adventurer and let the festivities begin!

Jungle Party Cake Ideas

Whether you’re throwing a cute party for your baby or toddler or a more sophisticated bash, these leaf printables jungle cupcake toppers will fit right in. They’re stylish without being over-the-top “cute” and can take cupcakes from “meh” to “amazing” in minutes with cute palm leaves and tigers. | Oh Happy Day

This colorful jungle-themed birthday cake will dazzle on any dessert table. Adorable safari animals and trees surround the bottom layer of the cake, while animal tracks adorn the top layer, along with the child’s age. You’ll find loads more ideas here, like the animal cookie sandwiches, banana pudding for monkeys, and some charming cupcakes with fondant animal toppers. | Roxy’s Kitchen

Want to DIY a cake yourself? It’s super easy to do. Make a basic two-tiered chocolate cake, and add some jungle animal figurines to the top. With jungle animal toys (or safari animals), it’s pretty simple, but it still looks professional and polished. | Kara’s Party Ideas

Safari Birthday Party Food

You’ll find so many cute jungle party foods here, from the snake sandwich, to the lion hummus, to the adorable cupcakes. Even the zebra bites and tiger tales are magazine worthy (and drool worthy). All of the ideas are simple to execute. Don’t make the ideas complicated with a jungle recipe, run to subway and let the sandwich artist do this meat, cheese and bread laying. You just add the pretty decor. | Chelsea’s Messy Apron

How amazing are these zebra chocolate covered strawberries? While they look difficult to make, they’re actually quite easy by dipping the strawberries in white chocolate first and then dipping the tip in milk chocolate while drizzling some up the “nose” using a spoon to create stripes. | Arts Crackers

Offer a healthy option that’s still cute and fun, like these jungle fruit and veggie trees. Carrot sticks and celery make excellent tree trunks, while apple or pear slices are the perfect leaves. | Honey and Lime

Here’s another healthy snack that’s sure to make the kids smile—tiger cub cuties. Draw the faces on with a Sharpie or a food-safe marker if you have concerns about the permanent marker. | Pen Lights to Pacifiers

Set up a jungle display on your buffet party table by weaving faux greenery throughout the dishes on your table. Include a mix of meats, veggies, and kid-friendly fare like pinwheels and sandwiches. | Catch My Party

Jungle Party Décor Ideas

With some cute safari animals (think giraffes, elephants, zebras, and tigers) and a few inexpensive jungle party supplies from Dollar Tree, you can make fabulous centerpieces for your jungle-themed party for just a few bucks each. These low-cost party decorations make cute party favors too. | Drugstore Divas

Put these animal party cups together to hold snacks like popcorn, candy, or individual cups of veggies and dip. You’ll need craft paper, glue, and scissors to transform your cups into monkeys, giraffes, or parrots themed treats. | Makes and Takes

Every detail of this neutral safari party is gorgeous. From the wooden crafts for displaying the cupcakes and cake, to the pretty favor boxes filled with animal crackers, the tan and brown colors all tie together nicely. I especially love the DIY rosettes in the background of the dessert table. | A Pumpkin and a Princess

Make an eye-catching balloon arch using animal print balloons along with colors that tie into the overall color scheme for the party. This pop of color will be perfect for taking photos with family and friends. | Kara’s Party Ideas

Cut animal silhouettes out of cardboard or foam board, paint them, and set them up in various places at your venue. They’ll look fantastic anywhere, from sitting in tall blades of grass, near a tree, or hanging on a wall if you’re partying indoors. This website also has free jungle party printables. | Windmill and Protea

Safari Party Activities for Kids

Set up a crafting area for the children to make a colorful paper plate lion. The design is simple enough for even young kids to do, but all ages will enjoy it. If you want to avoid a mess with paint, use yellow paper plates and red, brown, and orange paper strips instead. | Taming Little Monsters

For a simple, mess-free craft, try these cardboard tube monkeys. Cut the ears and face out of cardstock or construction paper, and add a pipe cleaner tail. How simple is that? | Jinxy Kids

Put on your safari hat. Provide a photo op for kids and parents alike using this Jeep idea! You’ll need a cardboard Jeep cutout and some willing adventurers to smile for the camera. | Arts Crackers

Provide these felt jungle masks for your partygoers to put on as soon as they arrive. It’ll be a fun way to get everyone on board with the theme and will serve as a cute favor keepsake from the party. Your stitching doesn’t have to be flawless for these masks, but if you want to skip the sewing altogether, use a sturdy fabric glue instead. | Tonya Staab

These DIY giraffe party hats are another fun wearable item for your guests. The printable is free, and you can jazz up the assembled hats with yarn pom-pom toppers. | Moms and Crafters

You can’t embark on a safari without a trusty pair of binoculars to help you see the animals up close and personal! These DIY toilet paper roll binoculars are a blast for kids to make themselves as a party craft. However, you can make them beforehand and let guests grab a pair during the party or as they leave. The printable binocular cover is a cute touch. | Go Places with Kids

Make up bags of monkey chow (a.k.a. banana chips) to give to your guests. They’re a yummy sweet treat that kids will love without sending them home with candy. | Michelle’s Party Plan-It

Strong Mom Quotes

March 16, 2022 by Ashley at Frugal Coupon Living Filed Under: Facebook, Instagram, Parenting, Pinterest, Printable, Social Media

Have a strong mom? Encourage her with these short mom quotes. This adorable mom quote printable is perfect for a mother’s birthday, Mother’s day or just because.

Being a mom isn’t for the weak. It’s a lot of hard work, but it’s also incredibly rewarding. A strong mom is one who can handle anything that comes her way, even when things get tough.

It’s no secret moms were created with some type of super human strength – both physically, emotionally and mentally. While I (a mom of five) don’t have the strength to lift a car, I can birth humans (in my case – accidently unmedicated, barely on a table.) While, I love good sleep I have an ability to make it day after day with interrupted nights.

The strength of a mother is powerful and sometimes events are placed our lives that require us to be physically and emotionally present and all of a sudden we are presented with super hero strength we did not realize we were able to muster. As Barbara Kingsolver once said, “sometimes the strength of motherhood is greater than natural laws.”

Children come into our lives in so many ways, you don’t have to have given birth to be a mother. No matter what your mom situation is, the fact of the matter is that if someone depends on you, you’re a momma.

Celebrate Mom with Strong Mom Quotes

Whether it’s Mother’s Day, mom’s birthday or mom is just overdue for some extra love, these strong mom quotes are a great way to remind the woman who raised you how much she means to you.

“A mother’s love is something that no one can explain, it’s something that you have to feel. It’s the passion of a thousand suns burning inside of you.” – Unknown

“The best place to cry is on a mother’s arms.” – Jodi Picoult

“We have a secret in our culture, and it’s not that birth is painful. It’s that women are strong.” – Laura Stavoe Harm.

“The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new.” – Rajneesh

“Motherhood is a choice you make every day to put someone else’s happiness and well-being ahead of your own, to teach someone else that life isn’t always about what you want.” – Mandy Hale

“A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when misfortune takes the place of happiness; when we are deserted by the world, and our friends in whom we trusted, have proved unworthy of our confidence. A mother’s love is then most needed, and most tender.” – Washington Irving

“A mother understands what a child does not say.” – Jewish Proverb

“Motherhood is a choice you make every day, to put someone else’s happiness and well-being ahead of your own. To teach the hard lessons, to do the right thing, even when you’re not sure what the right thing is to forgive yourself over and over again for doing everything wrong.” – Donna Ball

“One of the greatest titles in the world is parent, and one of the biggest blessings in the world is to be one.” – Jim Gaffigan

“A mom’s hug lasts long after she lets go.” – Unknown

“A mother is she who can take the place of all others but whose place no one else can take.” – Unknown

“All that I am or ever hope to be, I owe to my angel mother.” – Abraham Lincoln

“The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will find forgiveness.” – Honore de Balzac

“It is not until you become a mother that your judgment slowly turns to compassion and understanding.” – Erma Bombeck.

Strong Mother Quotes

As someone who has walked the walk of being a single mom, I wanted to share a few verses of encouragement. That circumstances in that season of time was one of my hardest. If you find yourself in times of stress, be encouraged by some of these strong single mother quotes.

“There is no way to be the perfect mother but a million ways to be a good one.” – Jill Churchill.

“Successful mothers are not the ones that have never struggled. They are the ones that never give up, despite the struggles.” – Sharon Jaynes.

“To describe my mother would be to write about a hurricane in its perfect power. Or the climbing, falling colors of a rainbow.” – Maya Angelou.

“Any mother could do the jobs of several air traffic controllers with ease.” – Lisa Alther

“Not only am I a fighter, but I’m a survivor. I think being a mother really plays into that.” – Willow Cross

“A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.” -Washington Irving

Hey Google, Call Mom

Being a mom doesn’t mean you’re perfect, it means you do your best. You feel more deeply, you love harder. You’re strong when you don’t want to be and show that it’s okay to be vulnerable.

Celebrate your mom with a simple phone call, text, or visit to remind her that she is loved. And if you don’t live near your mom, take a few minutes to tell her how much you appreciate all she’s done for you.

No matter what, a strong mom is always there for her children. So thank your mom for everything she’s done for you and let her know how much you love her with encouraging mom quotes.

Strong Mom Printable

To help you celebrate your amazing mom, we made this Strong Mom printable. Just download, print and frame the strong mom quote. I personally keep mine by my kitchen sink. Each time I am doing dishes (yes, millions and millions of dishes – usually my kids) I am able to view this quote.

I’m choosing to be thankful in this moment because it means we’re making a difference.

There is no perfect mother. In fact a good mother knows her imperfections. In fact, to quote Arianna Huffington “The fastest way to break the cycle of perfectionism and become a fearless mother is to give up the idea of doing it perfectly – indeed to embrace uncertainty and imperfection.”

If you are here today because you are also an exhausted mom, I get it. As a mom of five, I am also asked which number kid is the hardest. Honestly, each kid is unique and comes with their own joys and challenges. However, for me the answer to this question is always the same “the first is the hardest.”

If you are here, you are a mom. In that case, you at least have one. Hugs mama, it’s hard but you are strong. Remember, even in the day to day challenge, you are in this place, the present. And the present is the gift of your child(ren) even on days where you might not feel it.

XO Mom – Stay Strong!

Need a family spring activities checklist? Download and save this free Spring Bucket List printable when planning family fun this spring!

Spring is a time of new beginnings and exciting changes. One way to celebrate the season is by making a bucket list for spring. To help get your family moving and to help them break out of their (egg)shell, I’ve put together an exciting Spring Activities Bucket List printable to share with you.

What is a Bucket List?

A bucket list can be anything from things you want to do, places you want to go or people you want to see this time of year. For many people, a bucket list is a list of activities they would like to accomplish as a family. For others, a bucket list can include things to do before you die.

A bucket list can be short, like for a period of time like a season . Your list can be seasonal like a Christmas bucket list, or be made up of all the things that are unique to the months of March, April, and May. It can also be long like fun things you would like to accomplish in a lifetime.

The list can focus on indoor activities, things to do on vacation, or even over a school break Share these activities with others or make them solo. There’s really no limit to what you can put on your personalized bucket list or family bucket list.

A new season. A new tradition.

Spring Bucket List Ideas

Spring is the perfect time to start a new family tradition and make a plan to spend time together. We always have the best of intentions to do things as a family, but it seems like something always comes up. This year, make a plan and stick to it with this handy dandy spring bucket list!

One fun way to welcome the new season is to get outdoors and take in fresh air. Warmer weather opens up the list of ideas and outdoor activities you can do together. Of course, a list makes everything organized and together. Plus crossing things off your list is a great feeling and the reward of making great memories together is even better!

Here are a few ideas to get you started:

Have a family game night.
Make s’mores over a campfire.
Go on a road trip.
Craft a spring theme art project.
Go for a swim in the lake or pool.
Visit a nearby amusement park or waterpark.
Volunteer.
Go on an insect or bug hunt.
Plant spring flowers or vegetables in the garden.
Have a picnic outdoors.
Visit a farmer’s market
Go for a nature walk.
Attend a festival or fair.
Have an Easter egg hunt.
Visit a farm or petting zoo.
Make homemade ice.
Visit seasonal festivals for a staycation.
Have an Easter Scavenger Hunt.

Many of these ideas will offer the best time for kids of all ages – toddlers to adults.

Mmmm, me hearties! Want to throw a fun pirate-themed birthday party? Take a look at some of the best pirate party ideas for kids. Enjoy pirate party games, activities, party favors, pirate food, decorations, invitations and much more! Roll up your striped sleeves and talk like a pirate and give us your best growl. Let’s get started!

Ahoy, Matey! Are you searching for tips on throwing the best pirate birthday party ever? You’re in luck. We’ve found cute cakes and creative desserts that’ll satisfy any little pirate’s sweet tooth. We’ve also rounded up some simple ideas for décor and fun pirate-themed activities for the kids (and adults) to try. From printable pirate hats to pirate ship hot dogs any scurvy seafarer would love, you will find loads of inspiration to make your little buccaneer beam with pride on their big day.

How to Throw a Pirate Party

In this huge list of pirate party ideas, we focus on keeping it low cost and DIY. I am not talking about the DIY that creates the Pinterest Mom. I am talking about the busy mom that doesn’t want to break the bank when it comes to your child’s birthday party (unless you have a rather large pot of gold.)

When it comes to throwing low-cost pirate party, focus on these main ideas.

The Food
The Cake/Cupcakes
The Décor
The Pirate Games & Activities

If you can check off each of these areas, you probably have pulled your party together. Full bellies create happy people. It can be simple from goldfish crackers, to hot dogs, to pretzels.

Pirate party decorations can easily be collected online, from items you have at home (raid your Halloween décor), or by visiting The Dollar Tree.

Lastly, a memorable party includes activities. Otherwise you have a bunch of crewmates twiddling thumbs (if they have any left form the crocodile bites.) Make sure you download and print this incredibly helpful list of Pirate Party Activities and Ideas.

This includes a supply list and game instructions – trust me, you will thank me later. You might even send me a chocolate gold coin as a token of thanks.

Don’t walk the plank – let the pirate party remain on deck. Put the play in the party plan and have fun!

Pirate Cakes and Desserts

If you’d like to tackle making a homemade birthday cake, try this modern pirate party cake tutorial. The printable toppers and simple candy decorations (jelly beans, rock candy, Red Vines, and Hershey’s nuggets) are what make this design doable for just about anyone. Even if you’re not a cake decorating pro, you can pull off a similar cake. | Hostess with the Mostess

Speaking of easy cakes, these pirate cupcake toppers are super easy to recreate, too. Gold chocolate coins, sugar wafers, Hershey’s nuggets, and a few other confections are used to recreate pirates or pirate treasure. Frankly, these ideas are pretty genius! | It’s Always Autumn

Rice Krispies Treats are always welcome at parties, and these pirate treasure chests are outstanding! The rock candy (or broken jolly ranchers) looks like sparkling gems, and the edible pearls are a nice touch, too. These pirate treats will look incredible on your dessert table paired with an adorable pirate napkin. | Crayons and Cravings

Add these pirate flag cookies to the dessert spread or a delicious snack. You can even put them in cellophane bags with a black or red ribbon to send home with the guests as party favors. This is your basic sugar cookie decorated in a simple and fun way. For an added touch, decorate this area and your pirate food tablescape with accessories like bead necklaces and chocolate gold coins. | In the Kids Kitchen

More Pirate Party Food

No pirate theme party is complete without goldfish crackers. That is a quick and easy buy at the grocery store. However, if your child or attendees have gluten or dairy allergies, these homemade goldfish are a wonderful alternative. | Strength & Sunshine

Speaking of easy pirate party food, this beach snack recipe is perfect for your celebration. It is so quick and easy. Our seasoned oyster crackers and goldfish are phenomenal at pool and would be perfect for a pirate birthday gathering, too. | Frugal Coupon Living

Party food should be easy. After all, you’ll be busy entertaining! It could get any easier than these yummy pirate ship hot dogs with cute flags on top. | Pizzazzerie

Wet your whistle with pretty, blue pirate party punch. It’s made with Hawaiian punch, Sprite, and grape juice. | Hostess with the Mostess

This post has lots of creative ideas for pirate party foods, like the pirate peg legs, which are really just large pretzel rods. | Mother’s Niche

Pirate Party Décor

Make your own free pirate party invitation with this skull crossbones pirate map and your favorite photo editor. It’s really easy to do! | Fleece Fun

Message in a bottle…. (I hope you are singing The Police song.) Don’t worry, no SOS to the world in this message. Try these party invitations in a bottle. They have that sea-faring pirate feel and will likely be the most memorable party invite your child’s friends ever get! You can grab a set of miniature glass bottles here or check out the Dollar Store for low-cost pirate party accessories and pirate party decoratoins. | Becks & Avi

Drag out your Halloween costumes and decorations for the pirate party. A Halloween pirate party can be fun, but you can do this year around. Dress up a skeleton in an eyepatch, a pirate hat, and some swanky jewelry for a lively addition to the party. | Biscuits N’ Crazy

Grab epic photos with this pirate party photo booth made with recycled cardboard, paint, and a few other simple materials. | Red Ted Art

Pirate Party Games and Activities

Ready for some fun?! We have the best Pirate Party games! Download and print these 12 Pirate Themed Party Games with a Pirate Scavenger Hunt Treasure Map.

Provide these free pirate printable headbands for everyone to don when they arrive at the party or let the kids make their own as a fun party activity. Even the adults can get in on the fun (I mean unless they are booorrring and don’t want to – arrgghhh), so they have something pirate-y to wear. Talk about a budget-friendly quick and easy pirate costume.| Simple Everyday Mom

You don’t have to spend a small fortune and use all your gold coins for the birthday boy or girl to dress like a pirate on the big day. Instead, use some endlessly useful duct tape to make an eye patch, shirt stripes, and a pretty impressive swashbuckling sword. | Crafts by Amanda

Beg friends or save these for weeks in advance. Make some DIY pirate telescopes using toilet paper or paper towel roll . This create a cheap party craft and activity or have them ready beforehand for the kids to play with once they arrive. Use cardboard tubes decorated with black and gold paint (or duct tape) to make these in a cinch. | The Imagination Tree

Set up a plank over a shallow kiddie pool and have kids “walk the plank” to win prizes. This game will be a tremendous hit, but have towels ready just in case anyone falls off the plank! | DIY Inspired

Have a treasure hunt! This one was in a big sand pit, but you can use the same concept to hide treasure in a small sandbox or anywhere around your house or venue. X marks the spot! | Toddler Approved

Build your own Captain Hook ring toss following the instructions here. If you’re not really strong in the DIY department, it doesn’t have to be quite as fancy. Use painted foam board, plastic cups, hooks, and lightweight rings for tossing. Peter Pans and kids at heart will have fun with this pirate birthday party game. | Fleece Fun

Finally, make these adorable handprint pirates for the kids to save as keepsakes from the party. You’ll need paper, googly eyes, pencils, markers, and scissors. Set up a crafting area for the kids to trace their handprints and decorate them like pirates using the colors and materials they prefer. | Simple Everyday Mom

Get your crew to the deck and get ready to have an amazing celebration! Pin this list of pirate party ideas so you’ll have it handy before the big day arrives.

There are plenty of ways to get in on the fun too – you can make your own lucky charms for good luck throughout the year, make your own DIY leprechaun trap or learn about traditional Irish music instruments and dancing.

No matter what kind of fun you’re looking for, there’s a good chance that you can find it on March 17th!

In order to make this St. Patty’s Day Scavenger Hunt really fun, we added some rhyming clues that your child can solve as they race around the house in this at home treasure hunt. If you have toddlers or younger kids, pair them with older children to help solve the St. Patrick’s’ Day Scavenger Hunt riddles and clue cards.

A few examples of rhyming clues include…

Once printed, cut out the clues and hide them around the house so they match the list given. The idea behind the scavenger hunt is that a leprechaun has hidden treasure that your kids need to find.

You’ll want to put together a themed prize for the final clue location. This could be anything from a pot of gold coins to a special treat like some yummy candy or an Irish-themed toy.

Once everything is ready, gather the kids and explain the rules. Save the first card. Then, it’s time to get busy hunting!

The best part about this scavenger hunt is that it can be tailored to any age group, even adults! Just make sure to adjust the treats and small prizes at the end of the rainbow accordingly. Mini bottles of alcohol, chocolates, a rainbow charcuterie board and green beer would be a great adult prize for a St. Patrick’s Day treasure hunt!

March 1, 2022 by Ashley at Frugal Coupon Living Filed Under: Amazon, Hacks, Online Shopping

You all know I love a good mom hack. Mom, dad, grandmother, grandfather, or single lady with a lot of cats, this fits them all (I can add to the list.) Since this is a “mom blog” I address you all the most.

Moving along, one of my newest mom hacks and life hacks for the home I cannot live without are these Outlet Covers with a Night Light. I am not talking about the night lights you plug in, I am talking about a lighted outlet cover.

What is amazing about the LED Night Light Outlet Cover is they are really easy to install. Like your only talent needs to be the ability to screw and unscrew a screw (say that 5 times!)

I shared with you in the past, how we adore these Stick on Stairway Lights for illuminating a dark stairwell. Only, in our new home our stairs were pretty lit and our hallways were dark. Nothing is worse, in the night, then having to turn on a light switch – can I Get an Amen?

Night Light Outlet Cover Plates

Take a look at these Must Have Home Decor Night Light Outlet Cover Plates. They come in a few different styles so you can personalize to your outlet shape.

Many outlets have two separate circles within the rectangular plate. If you have this style, pick up the Duplex Outlets Electrical Outlet Wall Plate with LED Night Lights.

If you have newer outlets, look at these Decor Outlets – Electrical Outlet Wall Plate with LED Night Lights.

Finally, if you want to try this out with a light switch, they also have Light Switch Plates Night Lights.
