As soon as the fall and winter seasons hit, our calendars become filled with activity. However, coming out of the winter months might feel a little bit slower as we are all frozen from short days and cold months.  If you are looking for a few fun activities to do this spring with your family try a spring scavenger hunt! There are multiple ways to go about this. You can do a sprint scavenger hunt list with pictures for younger kids or you can do something fun and ab it more challenging for older kids. These can include fun outdoor riddles children last to solve in order to find the prize upon finishing. Or toss your hands in the area and do a scavenger hunt that is included every spring – hint, it includes little things called eggs.

How to create a spring scavenger hunt

One of the biggest scavenger hunts occurs every spring. In fact, it’s so common most of us don’t recognize it as a scavenger hunt. Spring always brings an Easter Egg Hunt as we scavenge the group for plastic little eggs. Because of this treasure hunt spring tradition, it’s easy to create a scavenger hunt in spring. In fact, if you don’t feel like putting together your own easter egg hunt, you can find one at schools, churches, and community parks most everywhere. It’s convenient and allows us to bring a few spring memories to our kids. If you want to put together your own spring scavenger hunt, then that can be accomplished too.

What are good items for a scavenger hunt?

Items needed for a scavenger hunt are different for each season and theme. A birthday scavenger hunt looks much different than a grocery store scavenger hunt. Common things needed or most scavenger hunts include…

  • Clue cards or a checklist
  • Prizes
  • Bags for collected items
  • Pencils, pens, crayons
  • Timer (for timed scavenger hunt races)

How do you make a simple scavenger hunt?

It’s easy to put together a scavenger hunt especially when you can easily access printable scavenger hunts.  To put together an easy scavenger hunt, set up the following scavenger hunt plan.

  1. Download and print your scavenger hunt (s) clue cards and or checklists.
  2. Scout out a location. For a spring scavenger hunt, have a backyard, park, or playground.
  3. Take a look at your lists. Are all items able to be found? If not cross out items that don’t work or omit the clues that don’t fit your outdoor scavenger hunt setting.
  4. If this is a scavenger hunt with clues, hide your clues in order. Briefly run through the scavenger hunt to make sure it works.
  5. With each clue hide fun prizes or one big prize at the end. If it’s a checklist scavenger hunt, hold on to the prizes.

Now that you are ready for a scavenger hunt during spring, take a look at these printable spring scavenger hunt ideas. Grab the printable hunt that is best for your crew.

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?

You’ve Been Shamrocked St. Patrick’s Day Activity

how to make diy printables for mothers day handprint craft kit

What do you do for the mother that has everything? I struggle with this every year. While flowers are always the go to, they are a temporary gift. If you are looking for a perfect mother’s day gift that is frozen in time, fingerprint art, footprint art and handprint art is a perfect idea. Mother’s day handprint crafts can be made at home or even in the classroom. In fact, we all can agree a baby handprint and toddler handprint are the most precious thing of all.

So let’s get started. Learn the best paint for making handprint art and then download and enjoy these adorable handprint mother’s day printable cards.

What kind of paint do you use for handprint art?

When making handprint art for mother’s day, it’s important to have the right paint. Especially if you want your product to last a long time. First you must answer the question, what medium is the handprint art going on. Once you have determined if you are using wood, paper, or canvas, you can then determine the paint source. You also want to use a non-toxic, organic paint as you are applying it to your child’s hand.

best paint for handprint art

The following paints can be used on the following sources…

Paper or Cardstock: A non-toxic washable tempera paint will easily stick to paper.

Canvas: Acrylic paint labelled non-toxic is safe to use.

Wood: Milk paint is made of natural ingredients making it the safest choice.

Drywall: Choose a non-toxic interior paint commonly found at Home Depot, Benjamin Moore or Sherwin Williams.

It is important to wash hands (feet/fingers) immediately after the print is created.

Is there a trick to getting handprint art smudge-free?

Getting the perfect handprint can be a challenge. A few tricks to help a smaller child create a handprint without smudging. Follow these five tips when creating kids’ handprint art for mom.

Tip 1: Have the right paint. When using paper, the best paint for easy clean-up is a non-toxic washable tempera paint.

Tip 2: Use distraction. If you can get an adult or older kids to help you, distract the child while you go through the motions of painting their hand and applying it to the paper. If you do not have as second helper, use an electronic or television to quickly deter their eyes.

Tip 3: Give the handprint artwork a few test runs. Print out extra copies of the mother’s day cards and practice with your little hands.

Tip 4: Use a paintbrush to evenly paint on hand and footprints. Remove excess paint before applying the child’s hand to the printable or canvas.

Tip 5: Lay down the hand very slowly and carefully. Start with laying down the pinky and slowly rolling the hand down on the paper until you hit the thumb. Once all the fingers and palm are placed, press your finger tips above the child’s handprint to ensure no part of the child’s hand is not applied to the paper. When you are ready to lift the handprint off, do this in a reverse motion. Slowly peeling the paper back from the child’s hand.

Give yourself grace. Sometimes the most adorable children’s hand prints artwork is found is in the mistakes. Then years down the road, small smudge might remind the gift receiver of a once-upon-a-time wiggly toddler.

Handprint Art Gift Tips

To preserve your handprint artwork for mom, consider laminating the project with an at home thermal laminator. Test a dry piece of art before laminating all your projects. It important to choose a low-heat setting.

You can also head to the Dollar Store and pick up low cost photo frames. If you don’t like the color of the picture frame, use a quick drying spay paint to change the color to match your mother’s day gift color palette.

If you need a quick drying tip on your printable art, apply thin coats of paint. Once the art is complete, place the papers to dry in an area with circulating air. You can also use a heater or hair dryer.

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

Spring Activities Bucket List Printable

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.

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

But if you’re looking for a way to add a bit of extra fun and excitement to your day, why not try this fun idea – a scavenger hunt? This St. Patty’s Day Scavenger Hunt is perfect for all ages and will have everyone racing around looking for clues to the leprechaun’s hiding spot.

Instructions

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!

Christian Easter Crafts – Resurrection Gardens


Why do we celebrate Easter? As Christians, we celebrate Easter because it recognizes the RESURRECTION of Jesus. Jesus was killed by crucifixion on a Friday (Good Friday) and then actually came back to life on the following Sunday (Easter.) Easter is often adorned with bunnies, eggs, and pretty dresses, but there are many ways we can still incorporate the “cute” things of Easter by not forgetting the reason for this season.

Before you get started, be sure to save this Easter Games List PDF for gatherings large and small, family Easter parties, youth groups, neighborhood playdates and more. See more Easter Games for Kids.
