Your wee one will love rockin’ this shamrock and clover bodysuit by Liam & Lilly. The striped short sleeves, soft 100% cotton fabric, and convenient envelope neckline add detail and versatility to this unisex frock. Pair it with some baby jeans or soft leggings and it’s the perfect look for holiday festivities. $13

Moccasins

Don’t forget about their tootsies! These metallic, soft, genuine leather BirdRock Baby moccs are a shimmery must for when your babe wants to go searching for four-leaf clovers. $30

Dress

Look at how stinkin’ cute this dress is from WAY TO CELEBRATE! From the ruffle sleeves to the tutu skirt to the oh-so-true saying, we are head over heels for this “Heart of Gold” ensemble. The sentiment will apply to your sweetheart year after year, and the elastic waistband means they just might get a second wear out of this machine-washable dress. And if you’re having more than one celebration, it’s also available in a striped, shamrock pattern. $10

Sweatshirt

Mid-March can still be chilly, so you’ll want to layer up your little one with this popular muted green crew neck sweatshirt from SweetBloomsStudio printed with a white “Little Lucky Charm” design. Just be sure to order quickly so that it’s delivered in time! $28

Bow

If you have a bow-wearing babe, a fun hair accessory like this rainbow-inspired bow from Ruffle Butts (so cute!) is essential. Plus, the attached headband makes it more comfortable for little noggins than a clip-on bow. $14

Swaddle

This versatile Kyte Baby bamboo swaddle blanket in the sweetest rainbow print is the perfect way for your newborn to cozy up after a long day of celebrating. It doesn’t have to end with the holiday, either, because this swaddle can be used year-round and for years to come. Now, if they only made these silky-soft blankies in king-size. $30

Book

Your little Mickey Mouse fan will be over the moon—scratch that, over the rainbow!—for Disney Baby’s My First St. Patrick’s Day story. Not only is their favorite character front and center, but there is also a touch-and-feel element that engages their senses as they learn about the beloved Irish holiday. $9

Story Set

Think of the Silly McGilly set as the Irish equivalent of Elf on the Shelf or Mensch on a Bench. The book comes with a plush leprechaun that you don’t want to leave out overnight. After all, nighttime is when Silly McGilly plays his tricks! One Amazon reviewer called it the “best St. Patrick’s story for kids ever!” $28

Nursery Rhyme

The Itsy Bitsy Leprechaun by Jeffrey Burton is just what it sounds like: a charming Irish twist on “The Itsy Bitsy Spider.” We love that it’s read to the tune of a nursery rhyme your wee one already knows. This way, their ears will perk up, and they may even hum along. $6

Lovey

These lamb stuffed animals from cuddle+kind are not only making kids happy, but they are also keeping them fed. With every purchase of a handknit doll, 10 meals are donated to children in need. Each animal in the collection has a name and a biography your child can embrace; Avery the Lamb was born in a beautiful pasture at sunrise, loves to bleat and sing, and is curious about all new things. From $64

Teether

Since they’re still too little to enjoy some traditional Irish corned beef and cabbage, pass them this silicone cabbage teether by Ounona to chew on during mealtime. The handle is easy to grip, and the different textures can help soothe their sore gums. $9

Stuffy

Follow the rainbow to find a pot of gold! Your cutie can snuggle up with this sweet, smiley, and colorful stuffy from Jellycat. Pro tip from happy customers: Parents can also use it as a neck pillow! $28

Toy

As we continue the rainbow-loving trend, let’s turn toward this colorful set of stacking cups from KIDSTHRILL. As we said in our list of toys that are great for development, stacking cups have a big impact on little learners, helping them learn how to grasp, release, and control their fingers. $12

Keepsake

This downloadable clover field print from Etsy’s PrintitoffShop can become a precious keepsake in no time. Print the page at home and then break out some washable green paint to stamp your baby’s hand as a sweet memento. At under $4, you might as well buy one for each of their growing hands.

Baby Wrap

With this cute LÍLLÉbaby baby wrap, you can carry your lucky charm around with ease long past St. Patrick’s day. It’s made from a super-soft blend of cotton and modal that will keep your babe feeling cozy. The back panel makes tying the wrap a breeze and keeps you feeling comfortable, and it’s designed to fit parents from size 00 to 24. $60
