Here is a little secret for some of the checkboxes like “Find a green animal”…. I print up a green animal picture and hide it! There’s really no reason to BUY anything for this St. Patrick’s Day game. You could do this entire St. Patrick’s Day Scavenger Hunt for FREE.

You could, of course, head to the Dollar Store and find a green teddy bear – something like that. But if you are in a bind, a printed photo will do just fine. Hey, that rhymed… I’m just on time. I’m out of my mind.

You need a little luck to find everything on this St. Patty’s Day game. But I bet you will get them all! Here’s the secret! The items found on the bottom of the sheet are the HARD TO FIND ITEMS. The ones that are extra special.

So, you can tell your children that the REAL scavenger hunt is the TOP LIST and the BONUS items are all on the bottom. That way, if you can’t find a rainbow or a penny… then no hard feelings. 🙂

But truth be told, a quick run to Target and I am sure that you will be able to get everything on this scavenger hunt list. Or like I mentioned above… a quick trip to your PRINTER.

Why Do We Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day?

To download your copy, click here. I hope your children enjoy this St. Patrick’s Day activity as much as mine do. You can time them as they race around the house looking for all of these items on the list.

Or you can allow them to explore at their leisure. It’s really up to you and how you want to play it. I think the younger they are, the less of a timed event it should be.

My two older kids love to compete against one another. So, I usually just let them have at one another on their own. They don’t need me anymore to get involved.

I usually just hand them the hunt and then they are off to the races! LOL! What do you think of this list? Did I leave anything out? Would love to hear your thoughts!
