After we acted out the fingerplay several times, B loved making different voices for each Shamrock and pretended that they were talking to each other. Their personalities really came out and in case you are wondering they really are the best of friends. Their eyes and mouths keep cracking me up. Easy peasy and oh so fun!

Love this? Pin it for later!
