My kids love St Patrick’s day but with it landing on a Sunday this year there’s not the fun of going to school in all your green! So I thought this year we’ll do a little something more than I usually do. I’ve put together this simple yet fun scavenger hunt for the kids. They’ll follow the clues and at the end of the hunt they’ll find their pot of gold with some fun simple “green” items. Here’s the clues you can print and use too!
It’s the month of green and leprechauns. My kids always look forward to St. Patrick’s Day and I honestly don’t know why. I’m not one to go all out for this holiday, I make it super simple. One thing I do like to do is have a few fun, different things we do that day. We eat Lucky Charms in the morning and then have some type of treat. I was looking at this yummy punch and I know my kiddos will love it. It’s simple and the perfect St. Patty’s Day surprise.

Can you guys believe it’s almost March? It’s one week away and that also means spring is just around the corner. If you live in an area like me, then Spring can bring so many different weather patterns. We get nice sunny days as well as snowy cold days. March is one of my favorite times to ski. Why? Because the days are longer which means you can get more sun and the temperatures are usually more pleasant. If you’re like me and enjoy some spring skiing, be sure to check these safety tips as well as money saving tips as you hit the slopes.

It’s that time of year when all I want is warm comfort food. I could eat soup and rolls every day of the week if only my kids would appreciate that too.

This is a crock pot recipe with items you most likely have in your pantry already. It’s definitely a winner.
