St. Patrick's Day craft

I work as a nanny 2 days a week. Yesterday we made a cute craft for St. Patrick's Day. I like to use the kids hand prints in a craft once a month so you can watch them grow. This one is super simple. First you should know a shamrock has 3 petals, not 4. The reason behind this is St. Patrick used the shamrock to teach the Irish about Christianity and the Holy Trinity. The three petals are the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

I painted their hands green, placed them down 3 times on white paper. Then I cut the hands out in petal shapes and glued them on green paper and added a stem.

Super cute artwork to and a way to keep track of your little ones growth! :D
