St. Patrick’s Day is around the corner and I have a new printable to share with you! Do you know the real reason we celebrate this holiday? Most of the time, we talk about the color green, rainbows, and leprechauns. However, this holiday is to celebrate the legend of St. Patrick. He was an amazing missionary and spread Christianity throughout Ireland.
Here are some facts about St. Patrick that I thought were fascinating:
- St. Patrick was captured at age 16 and was sold into slavery in Ireland
- He escaped Ireland and returned home to his family in Britain
- St. Patrick was known as the man who drove out all the snakes
- The 3-leaf clover was what he used to explain God and the trinity to people
And much more! You’ll have to read the printable for more information. This is a condensed version of his life, but it shares the most important parts.
I have two printables available. The color one is great for reading the story to children. The black and white one is nice if you want something for children to color. Both are free!
I hope you enjoy these printables and that you’re able to teach your little ones the reason we celebrate St. Patrick’s Day.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Thank you for this booklet! I will use it for the 5 – 8 year old children in youth church. May God continue to bless you for using your gift of teaching in such a great way.
It says click to print. It tells me on the downloaded that it is view only and will not let me print it.
I’m sorry! It should print. Have you downloaded the PDF to your desktop and then opened it in Adobe Reader? The best way to print the printables is in Adobe Reader. If that doesn’t work, let me know!
Love this booklet. Just what I was looking for. Thank you so much.
I love this book. Thank you very much for sharing.
Love this book! It is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!!
Angela, I don’t mean to be picky as I LOVE your work and your website! On page 2 of the booklet, you left out the word TO where it says “forced to go to Ireland.” The other item refers to capitalization. I know it is just a typo, but you may want to correct it. On page 7 and page 11, Trinity should be capitalized and on pg 7 God should be capitalized at the bottom.
Thank you for all you do and your continued ideas and love for little ones!
I appreciate it! I don’t want any typos, so I fixed it!!! Thanks for your sweet words. I appreciate your support!
Thank you so much for this resources! ❤️
Page 5 has a misprint. It reads “we” but should be “were” telling him ……

Thank you! It’s fixed!! 🙂
Wow!!!U inspire me as always👍🏽💐
