St. Patrick and the Holy Trinity

 

Have a special day with your children on St. Patrick's Day! There is a plethora of resources online, but here are some of my favorites. Why on earth would I make up any more of my own with so many to choose from?!

Hide gold coins around the house for children to find - with the intention that they have to clean up as they go! :)

GOD THE FATHER

Young children connect best with God the Father as our creator. There are so many lessons about creation and Genesis, I suggest starting there.

 

JESUS THE SON

With Palm Sunday the following week, I suggest this lesson on Palm Sunday for a lesson about Jesus.

Palm Sunday Crafts on Pinterest, my favorite being the Hosanna Palms from Mustard Seeds' blog

 

THE HOLY SPIRIT

During Lent, we are preparing our souls to be worthy of Christ's Mercy. "Our body is a temple of the Holy Spirit" I would suggest a lesson plan on the Holy Spirit: Our Life, His Home.
