ST. PATRICK'S DAY CELEBRATION



Some activities to have fun with St. Patty!





St. Patrick's Day Bingo

These St. Patrick's Day bingo cards can be printed off for any number of children. The cards refresh on the screen with random numbers.



Note: In our version of a bingo game you do not call off the letters. Print the numbers sheet below and only call the numbers. The same numbers sheet can be used with any of our bingo games.

For more lucky ideas, check out our entire selection of kid's St. Patrick's Day crafts.


What you'll need:

Computer

Printer

Printer paper or card stock (print off on light green paper if desired)

Printable bingo cards (see below)

Scissors

Green-colored candies or other markers (see tips for ideas)

Clear self-adhesive shelf paper (recommended: Con-Tact paper) or laminate (optional)

Bowl

Cardboard (optional)

Glue, optional

How to make it:

Print a page of St. Patrick's Day Lucky Bingo cards

If you experience printing problems: Try to use the 'shrink to fit' print option to get them to print on the page. Or try changing the font size to something smaller by going to the "View" menu in your browser and increase or decrease the font size. If that fails to help, you can print the page in 'landscape' mode and get two complete cards per page instead of four.

Now refresh your browser. The page now displays new random numbers!

Print the page again.

Be sure to print off enough playing cards for each child to have one.

If desired, cover with clear self-adhesive paper or laminate to be able to reuse the cards again next year.

Print a page of bingo numbers. HINT: Print off on card stock or glue to cardboard to give the numbers stability.

Cut the numbers apart on the lines.

Place the numbers in a bowl.

Give each child a bingo card and a handful of markers (see tips below).

Reach into the bowl, call out a number and the children place a marker on the number if it appears on their card.

Play the game just like regular bingo. Play for 5 in a row across, down, diagonally, or even play blackout by covering all the numbers on the card

Tips:Number markers can be holiday candy, punched circles from card stock, flat buttons, or any small item of which you have a multitude!


MAY THE LUCK OF THE IRISH BE YOURS TODAY !

So I don’t sleep or snooze
I don’t play no games so don’t don’t don’t get it confused no
Cos you will lose yeah
Now now pump pump pump pump it up
And back it up like a Tonka truck

[J-Lo]

If you go hard you gotta get on the floor
If you’re a party freak then step on the floor
If your an animal then tear up the floor
Break a sweat on the floor
Yeah we work on the floor
Don’t stop keep it moving
Put your drinks up
Pick your body up and drop it on the floor
Let the rhythm change your world on the floor
You know we’re running sh*t tonight on the floor

[J-Lo & Pitbull]

Brazil, Morocco
London to Ibiza
Straight to LA, New York
Vegas to Africa

[Chorus]

Dance the night away
Live your life ,and stay young on the floor
Dance the night away
Grab somebody drink a little more
Lalalalalalalalalalalalalala
Tonight we gon’ be it on the floor
Lalalalalalalalalalalalalala
Tonight we gon’ be it on the floor

I know you got it clap your hands on the floor
And keep on rockin’, rock it up on the floor
If you’re a criminal kill it on the floor
Steal it quick on the floor, on the floor
Don’t stop keep it moving
Put your drinks up
Its getting ill it’s getting sick on the floor
We never quit, we never rest on the floor
If I ain’t wrong we’ll probably die on the floor

[J-Lo & Pitbull]

Brazil Morocco
London to Ibiza
Straight to LA, New York
Vegas to Africa

[Chorus]

Dance the night away
Live your life ,and stay young on the floor
Dance the night away
Grab somebody drink a little more
Lalalalalalalalalalalalalala
Tonight we gon’ be it on the floor
Lalalalalalalalalalalalalala
Tonight we gon’ be it on the floor

[Pibull]

That badonka donk is like a trunk full of bass on an old school Chevy
7 trail donka truck
All I need is some vodka and some chunka coke
And watch a chick get donkey konged
Baby if you’re ready for things to get heavy
I get on the floor and act a fool if you let me dale
Don’t believe me just vet me
My name ain’t Keath but I see why you Sweat me
L.A. Miami New York
Say no more get on the floor

Lalalalalalalalalalalalalala
Tonight we gon’ be it on the floor
Lalalalalalalalalalalalalala
Tonight we gon’ be it on the floor
Lalalalalalalalalalalalalala
Tonight we gon’ be it on the floor
