Wooden Spoon Leprechaun - St. Patrick's Day Kid Craft

Spark your kids’ imaginations and get crafty this St. Patrick’s Day with this fun puppet-making project! This wooden spoon leprechaun is sure to put a smile on their faces.

Craft Supplies:

  • Wooden Craft Spoons
  • Green Sharpie Marker
  • Orange Sharpie Marker
  • Black Sharpie Marker
  • Green Cardstock Paper
  • School Glue
  • Basic Craft Scissors

Directions:

  • First the fun part! Have children draw {or paint} their wooden spoon however they like. I went with a green body, orange beard and black facial features.
  • Once done, set aside to let it dry completely.
  • While children are working on that – cut out a simple green hat shape from the cardstock paper.
  • To finish off the Wooden Spoon Leprechaun – simply glue the paper hat to the wooden spoon and add other embellishments you see fit {like glitter, rhinestones etc.}
  • To display, you can add magnets to the back, stick it in a flower pot or hot glue some string to the back of the spoon for easy hanging!

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
