St. Patrick’s Day is almost here, and we can’t wait to celebrate! While this holiday is typically associated with going out and hopping between parties, we want to celebrate at home this year instead. If you’re in the same boat as us and want to spend this festive day in your Weidner Apartment, keep reading for some fun ideas to get you in the spirit!
Go Green
Saint Patrick’s Day is all about the green! Go a little extra for the holiday and make everything green. Wear a green outfit, make green pancakes, use green eyeliner. However you choose to incorporate this color in your day, be sure to have fun with it. We recommend breaking out the green food dye and adding it to any beverage of your choice for a magical, color-changing surprise.
Whip Up Some Irish Food
What better way to celebrate Irish culture than with some delicious food? Head to Pinterest and look for an Irish recipe that calls your name. From soda bread and stew to colcannon and corned beef, there is something out there for everyone. If you’re feeling less adventurous, you can always opt just to make a simple shamrock shake!
Go on a Four Leaf Clover Hunt
Gather the family and go on a hunt for four-leaf clovers! This fun and easy task is a great way to get everyone out and about in the community, plus it’s a great way to enjoy this beautiful weather. Remember, whoever finds a four-leaf clover will be very lucky!
Watch an Irish Movie or Tour
Get into the holiday spirit by watching an Irish film! Two of our favorites include The Secret of Kells and Song of the Sea. If you want to take a more historical approach to the day, you can enjoy a virtual tour of some Irish historic sites and museums! The National Museum of Ireland and The National Gallery of Ireland both offer virtual tours and can help you learn a lot about the history and culture of Ireland.
