St Patrick's day, the magical time of year when paper plates transform into shamrocks. Despite the Philippines being an intensely Catholic country, no one at my center had heard of the holiday. I had an interesting time explaining St. Patrick, leprechauns, four leaf clovers, and pots of gold at the end of rainbows. The girls had a great time painting and decorating their shamrocks (Thanks to the paper plates and glitter glue donated by my grandmother and great aunt). I also printed themed coloring pages for them, painted their nails with green glitter, and taught them Irish slang. Look out Philippines you just might have a new holiday on your hands.
