Hide the Shamrock


While this game works best with a few children, you can still play when there?s just the two of you.

Materials
  • Green construction paper
  • Scissors

Directions

  1. Cut a shamrock out of green construction paper.
  2. Choose a child to be "it."
  3. While other children hide their eyes, "it" hides the shamrock within a designated area.
  4. Everyone then opens their eyes and tries to find the shamrock.
  5. The finder gets to be "it" for the next round.
