Every year, St. Patrick’s day brings millions of people a night of drunken, crazy times. Bars are open later and it’s by far Guinness’ most profitibal evening. But for us minors, drinking alcoholic beverages is out of the question and instead we might find ourselves desperately searching for activities to fill the lonely night. Rather that try to defy the law , here’s ten legal favorites from two little Irish lassies.

Listen to Irish music

Be it while you’re in the car on the way to school with the windows down or while a local leprechaun is revealing the location of his pot of gold, there is never a bad time to blast some good ol’ Irish tunes. Classic folk tunes are always a good choice while the pogues will most likely provide a higher level of entertainment. If you’re really ambitious, learn some Irish steps to show of to your friends.

Make Celtic knots

Not as commonly associated with St. Patrick’s Day but a grand symbol of the Irish Culture, take a break from friendship bracelets and tie some Celtic Knots. Turn this seemingly mundane activity into a romantic gesture by doing it with a loved one to symbolize tying the knot of companionship.

Eat only green food

For the more adventurous folk, limit your dietary habits to only green food for 24 hours. Don’t be turned away by the limited number of green foods that aren’t vegetables, try picking out only green Froot Loops or better yet die your own food. The options are endless.

Educate yourself

Research the real St. Patrick. Why is he a saint? Was he even Irish?! These are important questions in understanding the meaning of the holiday.

Wear green

A classic method of showing your spirit that also serves as a protection technique from tireless pinching.

Eat corned beef and cabbage

Although not the most appetizing of names, Corned Beef and Cabbage is a favored Irish dish and is commonly eaten on holidays. Be sure to steam the cabbage, then mash it up with lots of butter to get the full Irish effect.

Kiss every Irish person insight

We advise you to kiss every and any person who looks remotely Irish or claims to be Irish. If you kiss enough Irish people, some of their luck is sure to rub off on you.

Learn to speak Gaelic

Few people at Garfield have yet to master this task (Lily Anderson, you go girl), it is now time to rebirth this beautiful language so we can all speak in “code” to each other. Start with “Erin Go Bragh.” Translation: “Ireland Forever”.

Go rainbow hunting

Pick a rainbow and follow it to the end, if you’re lucky and leprechaun will be waiting there with his pot o’ gold.

Go to church

Contrary to popular belief, if you really want to celebrate St. Paddy’s like the Irish go to church. Don’t wear green. Don’t drink up a storm. Go to church and honor St. Patrick and all he did for Ireland.
