Patrick 's
Day Party Planning
So,
you are celebrating St. Patrick's day by having a St. Patrick's
Day party and want some ideas of what to do with your guests. Below
you'll find ideas for things to do at St. Patrick's Day
parties for kids (these activities are also perfect for St. Patrick's
day school parties) as well as some adult party ideas for St. Patrick's
Day, although we suggest you let them double as adult games, and
let the kid come out of you and your guests by trying on some of
the kids games for size. Just award a more grown up prize to your
winning guest and any child's game can be turned into an adult
delight! Either way, you're well on your way to having a fun St.
Patrick's day!
Pinatas

St.
Patrick’s Day Scavenger Hunt
Have
fun with a scavenger hunt on St. Patrick’s Day! Leave a trail
of clues that leads to a pot of treasures. See who has the luck
of the Irish and will discover it first!
Musical
Shamrocks (just like Musical Chairs)
You'll
need: Green construction paper, scissors, tape, Irish music
Before your party, pre-cut shamrocks from the construction
paper, or for an adult party, you can have people do it themselves
as they arrive. Tape large green shamrocks to the floor, one for
each person. Every person starts the game standing on a shamrock.
Start the music and have the people walk around the room. When the
music stops, they need to stand on a shamrock or they are out. Remove
one shamrock after each musical segment.
Ideas
for Low Key Irish-Themed Evenings
for Two or Small Groups of Friends
Maybe
green beer's just not your thing, and you're looking for a more
low key yet still festive way to spend St. Patrick's day. A little
Irish Food, mixed with a little Irish culture on DVD and you've
got yourself a fun night! Contrary to popular belief, it's not
all about the alcohol!
The
Quiet Man- DVD
Blarney
and bliss, mixed in equal proportions. John Wayne plays an American boxer who
returns to the Emerald Isle, his native land. What he finds there is a fiery
prospective spouse (Maureen O'Hara) and a country greener than any Ireland
seen before or since--it's no surprise The Quiet Man won an Oscar for cinematography.
It also won an Oscar for John Ford's direction, his fourth such award.
St.
Patrick Apostle of Ireland DVD
Who
was Saint Patrick? This new documentary film delves beneath
the myth of Ireland’s patron saint to reveal that
the patron saint of Ireland was an ordinary man who accomplished
the extraordinary by placing his faith in God. Precious
few historical facts are known of this man who walked through
pre-Christian 5th century Ireland. Two documents written
by Patrick, the Confession and his Letter to Coroticus,
an Irish warlord, are all that remain. Yet these brief
writings captured his emotional state, his innermost feelings
and aspirations. Exquisitely filmed on location in Ireland,
and using dramatic wide-screen black and white re-creations,
SAINT PATRICK: APOSTLE OF IRELAND, visually traces the
great saint’s footsteps. Patrick’s actual confessions
are read in voice-over, and evocative music further carries
viewers back in time to re-live the experience of walking
side by side with Patrick. From his birth to his death,
viewers are able to witness Patrick’s physical struggles
and to participate fully in his transformation and spiritual
mission.
The
Irish Tenors - The Essential Collection DVD
Television
producers seeking to combine the twin phenomena of the
original Three Tenors (Luciano Pavarotti, Placido Domingo,
José Carreras) and Irish music (an international
sensation fueled by Riverdance) came up with the Irish
Tenors. The Essential Collection includes both their televised
concerts from Dublin and Belfast, the first of which establishes
the format: John McDermott, Anthony Kearns, and Ronan Tynan
appearing on a small, plain stage and singing mostly traditional
songs.. The second concert provides more of the same, but
is most notable for the debut of new tenor Finbar Wright
after McDermott had taken leave from the group. And of
course both shows include "Danny Boy"--as inevitable
a closer as "Nessun dorma" was for that other
trio of tenors.
