St David's Day for Kids

St Davids Day Kids

St David's Day is celebrated in Wales and by Welsh people throughout the world on 1st March. To help you celebrate with your kids and learn about Wales and Welsh customs, we have put together a fun collection of ideas and activities including colouring pages, puzzles, jigsaws, printables and much more!

Who was Saint David?

Saint David (known as Dewi Sant in the Welsh language) is the patron saint of Wales. He was a Celtic monk who lived in the 6th Century and was Archbishop of Wales. His influence is shown by the number of churches dedicated to him in Wales.
