Full-blooded Irish or not, it’s that time of year again to dust off that silly green hat and your “Kiss Me, I’m Irish” pin and go eat some corn beef and cabbage. That’s right – Saturday, March 17, is Saint Patrick’s Day, and we’re getting in the spirit by pulling together a few of our favorite green personalized growth charts and alphabet posters that are worthy of a pot of gold!
Which of the following personalized growth charts and alphabet posters would your little leprechaun like best?
DO YOU FEEL LUCKY? FREE DOWNLOAD – HIDE & SEEK SHAMROCKS
With St. Patrick’s Day this Saturday, March 17, we were inspired to create an activity you can do with your wee ones, inside or out, no matter what this crazy weather brings that day. And we think the perfect way to spend the day would be to start off with some green eggs and ham for breakfast, dress up all in green, play a few rounds of hide & seek, and then see who can speak with an Irish accent the longest.
Click here for a link to download the PDF of the Hide & Seek Shamrocks (shown left). And while you’re online, why not get your rapidly growing little leprechaun(s) one of our darling Personalized Growth Charts. If you need some inspiration, check back tomorrow when we’ll post a round-up of our favorite green Personalized Growth Charts and Alphabet Posters.
LITTLE ALL-STAR STYLE
Football season recently ended, but luckily there’s March Madness for the basketball fanatics and spring training for the baseball lovers in the house, not to mention hockey and soccer seasons. With no shortage of teams to root for together as a family, as well as sports to play, spring is one busy season. And we’re big fans of team sports, not just for the fun and healthy exercise it offers our kids, but also for the sense of camaraderie and teamwork it instills.
We think sports themes are perfect for kids’ rooms and/or baby showers, and there are so many fun products to choose from. In addition to team logo wear, there’s sports-themed bedding, lamps, mobiles, and artwork, like personalized growth charts (Junior Varsity personalized growth charts in Sky Blue, Chocolate or Teal) or an alphabet poster (Junior Varsity alphabet poster).
Who knows, your little one may be the next Buster Posey, Jennie Finch, Hope Solo or Eli Manning.
A MAGICAL PLACE
“goodnight comb; and goodnight brush
goodnight nobody; goodnight mush
and goodnight to the old lady whispering ‘hush’”
– excerpt from “Goodnight Moon” by Margaret Wise Brown
From old, classic nursery rhymes to modern day fairytales, it’s easy to see why kids get swept away to a magical place when reading a good book. And there’s something so cozy and comforting about a place specifically designed for enjoying books, particularly when its kid sized. We found this amazing reading nook on Pinterest that’s decked out with everything a kid could possibly need to read a book, take a nap or simply daydream.
All you really need are books, a comfy chair and a little bit of imagination to create a suitable reading nook, but we’d kick it up a notch by adding a few colorful pillows, lamps and wall art, like our Personalized Growth Charts and Alphabet Posters, to the space.
Which of our Personalized Growth Charts and Alphabet Postersdo you think complements this reading nook best – the pairing of On The Go Growth Chartand On The Go Alphabet Poster, or Colorful Words Growth Chartand All Mixed Up Alphabet Poster?

In addition to our personalized growth chartsand alphabet postersthat feature frogs, like My City or Best Friends personalized growth charts, and Animal Crackersor Zoo Friendsalphabet posters, how adorable are these frog themed products for kids?
