The Best St. Patrick's Day Picture Books

THE EASIEST WAY TO CELEBRATE ST. PATRICK'S DAY


In the past, the idea of celebrating a holiday would make me feel overwhelmed. I felt this way because I was making holidays too complicated. I’ve learned how to slow down, do less, and enjoy our homeschool more. Why couldn’t I apply this mindset shift to holidays?


So I did. 


The easiest way to celebrate a holiday and still be intentional is through books. Books paired with a special treat is even better, but books by themselves create the best of memories.

But will they be able to find his pot of gold? Natasha Wing's sweet story is once again told in verse to the same meter of Clement Moore's classic." Find it here.
