Match Up The Alphabet Letters
Fun Hands–On Activity
You will need some mega blocks and a marker and write the letters you want to use onto the circle stickers and then stick these onto the blocks. If you have a lot of younger children you may only want to use uppercase letters, if you have a lot of older preschool kids you will want to use uppercase and lowercase letters. Depending on how many kids you have and how much time you have will help you to determine if you want to use 10 letters to match, 20 letters to match up or the entire alphabet to match up.
This letter match up activity is a great way for the kids to learn their letters plus a fine motor activity where they need to put the blocks together once they find a match.

Five Shamrocks & Rhyme
Click here – Free Download
Directions: Download and print out the six shamrocks above onto heavy paper, color them different colors, make sure one is green and cut them out.
To begin to play the game have the children sit in a circle.
One player sits in the middle of the circle; this player is the leprechaun. The leprechaun starts the game by passing the six shamrocks out. The leprechaun then closes his/her eyes and keeps them closed while the shamrocks are being passed by the children around the circle that they are sitting in.
After the shamrocks have been passed for a few seconds, the leprechaun shouts, "Shamrock!" and opens his/her eyes. The players holding the shamrocks will take turns holding up their shamrock and everyone will yell out what color shamrock they are holding up, the child with the green shamrock is the winner of this round, you can change the color each time so the children don’t know which color is going to be the winner.
Now the winner gets to be the leprechaun for the next game. Continue playing until each child has had a turn at being the leprechaun.
Fun game to play on St. Patrick’s Day or if you are going to have a party this would be the perfect time to play this game!

The Leprechaun Says Game
Larry Leprechaun Says Game
Larry Leprechaun Says {played like simon says but with a leprechaun instead}
How To Play: Played like Simon Says.
The teacher will say Larry Leprechaun or Larry Leprechaun.
Teacher will say "Larry Leprechaun says wiggle your fingers". The children will wiggle their fingers.
Teacher will say "Larry Leprechaun says swim around". The children will wiggle their fingers.

Teacher will say "Mess up your hair". If anyone does this movement, teacher will say, ut oh, Larry Leprechaun didn't say that!
With young children we don't have them sit out if they get caught doing the movement when Larry Leprechaun did not say to do it, we just continue the game until
the children lose interest.
This is a fun gross motor movement game to play with young children on St. Patrick’s Day.
