With St. Patrick's Day only a week away, I have been in full on party planning mode. Last week, I knocked out fun teacher/girlfriend gifts, but this week I am all about the kids. Cute's class has a little party each year, and I wanted to do a fun little favor for he and his classmates. I was trying to come up with something cute and easy for them to use and also tie in with the days festivities.
After some brainstorming, I thought it would be fun for the children to go on a Leprechaun hunt. Then the thought came to create "Leprechaun Lookout Lens" as a coordinating prop.
I created a draft for the printable first, and then browsed the dollar store for some further inspiration. In my mind I was thinking binoculars, glasses or a spy glass would be perfect for tying in the hunt and the favor idea.
I finally landed on these fun shamrock glasses, and there were plenty of them so I didn't have to scour stores for enough pairs. (I did check for you guys, and most major retailers have something similar in large quantities still available.)
After bringing my find home, I printed my tags and attached directly to the glasses. I figure the children will want to wear them right away and it's an easy removal and clean up.
I can't wait to see them running around in them searching for sneaky Leprechauns. Too cute!
If you plan on enjoying a Leprechaun hunt of your own, it's only fitting that you also get your own Leprechaun Lookout Lens. To download the printable click HERE.
While I am sharing fun St. Patrick's day themed printables I thought I would share the following one as well.
I hadn't thought about it and then a friend walked in my home and asked for a copy. It's pretty simple, but I like that it adds a little something fun to our home decor for the holiday.
Since sharing is caring, if you would like to download this free printable for your own home,

Happy Tuesday everyone!

Those glasses are adorable!! I miss the days of preschool when we had parties for every holiday. Now that my daughter is in school, not so much! :( But we still fix treats to take in and share with her classmates.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing that print, too!
Thank you Cory! I am going to miss the day they don't have parties anymore :(. Stay little forever!
