Print our free build a shamrock craft for an easy St. Patrick’s Day craft. Easy to make: just print the free template, color, cut and glue.
This is a color, cut, and glue shamrock template. Basically, you print the shamrock kids craft (see link below), have your kids color it, cut it out and glue it together. It’s that simple.
To make it even easier if you are short on time (or if your kid doesn’t feel like coloring), you can print the shamrock that is in color. In this case, you would just print (see link below), cut, and glue it together.
This free shamrock template would make a great homemade St. Patrick’s Day card for friends or family. Simply, glue your completed shamrock to a folded piece of paper for an instant card.
Your child can also color the “Happy St. Patrick’s Day” saying on the template and glue it to the front or inside of the card.
This is an easy craft for toddlers and preschoolers to make. It can help them practice coloring in the lines. Depending on the age of your child, he may need help with the scissors.
This shamrock craft is also good for grade schoolers. My son has been into painting with watercolors lately, so he painted his shamrock with watercolors. It turned out cute.
There are so many ways your kids can decorate their shamrocks. You may need to print out multiple copies. (They do make cute St. Patrick’s Day decorations or you could give them to friends and family).
First, decide if you want to have your kids color their own shamrock or use the already colored shamrock craft. If you can’t decide, you can print both (see link below).
Decorate your pieces of shamrock how your kids like. You can use crayons, colored pencils, markers, paint or stickers. Let their creativity shine.
It is easier to decorate the pieces of shamrock first and then cut it out.
The free shamrock template includes a small picture of the finished product in the corner, so your kids know how to glue it together.
This easy shamrock craft is perfect for a St. Patrick’s Day classroom party.
