Whether you’re Irish or not, you and your guests can enjoy celebrating this “lucky” day. Write your party details on a plastic beer mug, using a green paint pen. Mail in a box that is lined with green tissue paper. Be sure to ask your guests to wear green.
Cut large shamrocks from poster board to hang from the ceiling and walls of your party room. Paint a rainbow and a pot of gold on a large banner to hang on the wall. Cover your serving table with a green tablecloth. Your centerpiece can be a black pot filled with bags of gold foil-wrapped chocolate coins, which are the guest favors.
Serve drinks from green plastic beer mugs. If you’re serving beer, tint it green with food coloring. In honor of the Irish potato, serve a baked potato bar, with lots of toppings: grated cheese, chopped ham, bacon bits, sour cream, butter, onions, cooked broccoli or green peas, etc. For dessert, serve petit fours or sugar cookies cut into the shape of shamrocks and iced with green frosting. |
|
For a fun activity, cut out 10 or 12 small shamrocks from green construction paper. Write an Irish related question on each one and number each question from 1 to 12. Tape the shamrocks on the walls around the party room. Provide paper and pens and ask guests to write down their answers to each question, but give them a limited amount of time, about 5 minutes, depending on the number of guests. The person with the most correct answers when time runs out wins a prize.
Give each guest an instant “scratch-off” lottery ticket and let them reveal their results. |
