How many GREEN<\/mark> things do you think you can find around your house? This cute St. Patrick’s Day Seeing Green<\/strong> activity is a great visual primary activity<\/a> to review a bunch of different primary songs! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This St. Patrick’s Day<\/a> themed activity is pretty simple! Just find as many GREEN things as you can and bring them to primary. Attach a primary song to each item and have the children uncover all the green items during singing time! <\/p>\n\n\n

St. Patrick’s Day: Seeing Green! <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This St. Patrick’s Day activity is such a fun way to bring in a festive activity that low-prep & low-stress! You may be shocked how many green things you can find in your house! When I started looking around for things that are green, I found green folders, green colored pencils, green sweaters. Even my shampoo is green! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can use any kind of household items for this activity. If you’re looking for a few more green items, I have a printable later in this post that has pictures of green things. There are pictures of green apples, green trees, green grasshoppers, and more! Green, Green, GREEN! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n

Start by collecting 8-10 green items! If you get creative, you can probably find most these items in your home without having to run to the store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose some primary songs you want to review. If you choose 6-8 songs, you can repeat a few during primary. I’ll be using the songs we’ve learned so far this year plus a few wiggle songs just for fun! If you want to use some “festive” songs, you can find 45 LDS St. Patrick’s Day Primary Songs here! <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the back of each item, write the name of one of the primary songs you want to review. Place your items on a large tray and cover them before primary. Set them on the table and see if the kids can guess what is hiding underneath the sheet.<\/p>\n\n\n

Then, uncover the sheet and reveal all the GREEN things! You can act puzzled and ask the kids why everything on the sheet turned green. Hopefully they will guess \u201cSt. Patrick\u2019s Day!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have the kids come up and choose one item at a time. When they come up to choose an item, have them turn the item over to reveal the song!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Continue choosing green items until you\u2019ve taken all the items off the tray. If you want to add some extra fun to this activity, try using one of our extension ideas below! <\/p>\n\n\n
