large jar. Count the number of jellybeans you put into the jar.

This is a traditional party game. For fun use a real
potato and play some Irish music. |
|
This is just a variation from Simon Says.
But add some funny Irish twist to the game. |
Gather kids in a circle and pick one to start off the game.
This is played like the classic game of "Duck, Duck, Goose".
The first player walks around the circle of kids and
lightly taps their heads and says, "Luck". He then chooses a
player by tapping their head and saying "Gold". That player must
chase after the starting player and tag him/her before he/she gets back
to their empty spot in the circle. If the first player makes it back
they are safe. If he gets tag he's it again. |
Played like musical chairs but use large clover cutouts
taped to the floor or rug.
Put one less clover out than the number of children
playing. Play Irish music and have the kids go in circles around
the clovers. When the music stops, everyone must claim a clover. Only
one person per clover, so the child without a clover is eliminated.
Each time remove a clover. Continue playing until
there is one person left. |
