One of my favorite signs of Spring is St. Patrick’s Day. I’ve loved that day since I was a child. I well remember excitedly planning my school attire in order to make sure I wore something green so I wouldn’t be pinched. I couldn’t have told you why we wore green or why we should be pinched for not doing so. I simply knew that it was a lot of fun!
As an adult, I love to introduce children to holidays, and St. Patrick’s day is no exception. One of my favorite ways to share is through books and reading time.
This collection of St. Paddy’s Day books for kids is sure to please the special child in your life. From stories about the life of the real St. Patrick to Irish folk tales about Leprechauns and Shamrocks, there is something to please everyone.
Just be sure to wear some green on March 17th, especially around your children. These St. Patrick’s Day books for kids might all contain a bit o’green, but that won’t protect you from getting pinched!
