St Patricks Day Coloring
Many parents underestimate the importance of coloring. It’s more than just a pastime for kids – it has serious developmental benefits that help children grow and learn.
WHY USE COLORING PAGES
I love to use coloring pages when I read-aloud to my kids. Coloring keeps their hands busy and their bodies still while allowing them to listen to the story without getting antsy or fidgety.
Coloring – whether with pencil, marker, or crayon – is a great way to provide children with an opportunity to practice holding a writing utensil the correct way. It helps develop the fine motor muscles in a young child’s hands, fingers, and wrists.
As children engage with their coloring pages, they strengthen their ability to focus and concentration skills.
PREPARING THE PRINTABLES
These free printable St. Patrick’s Day coloring pages just need to be printed, and then you’re all set with a fun holiday homeschool activity for your kids.
WHAT’S INCLUDED?
This printable pack includes ten different St. Patrick’s Day gnome pages for kids to color. Three pages have holiday phrases on them. The other seven are adorable gnome scenes.
More Ways to Use the Coloring Pages
After kids have completed their chosen gnome coloring page, have them use it as a story prompt. Invite them to write a creative story about the gnome on their page.
Take some time to teach kids about silent letters. Teach them about “gn” words like gnome, “kn” words like knife, and “wr” words like write.
Encourage your kids to do a little research about gnomes. Where did they come from? Why are they considered lucky?
