St. Patrick's Day Fun

St. Patrick's Day is approaching on March 17th; it is a day to celebrate Irish culture and many people will wear something green and enjoy Irish food and drink.  In St. Louis there is even a parade!
Here are some fun green things you might enjoy doing or supporting someone to do:
Green Fruit Dip
Mix together equal parts cream cheese and marshmallow cream.  Add some green food color and blend.  Dip apples or other fresh fruit.
Green Sensory Bag
Pour some light corn syrup into a Ziplock bag.  Add equal drops of blue and yellow food color and seal tightly.  Let the person it is for swirl it together and watch the liquid turn to green.
Green Collage
Use grocery flyers or magazines to cut out pictures of green fruits and vegetables and glue them all to a poster or piece of paper for a green collage.
