yOU NEED @ YOuR loCAL
thRIFt STOre!
First things first.....
You've gotta Have Shiny Stuff.
We have found that a good mix of gold and silver
does the trick!
Next.....
Cut a trap door in the top of a cardboard box.
Attach a pull string to the trap door.
That way....
when the Leprechaun peeks inside and spots
the treasure awaiting him...
He will slide down the golden rope, pulling the door shut
behind him.
Fill the box with Shiny Treasures...
This is what the lil' fellar will see!
Ain't a green guy alive that can resist this much loot!
AND DON'T FORGET THE
CHOCOLATE!!!
CUZ MOMMY LIKES CHOCOLATE! :)
.... (AND SO PROBABLY LEPRECHAUNS DO TOO)
nOW yOUr READY TO cATch a
lepRECHAuN!!!
ThE kiddos and the adUlts
can have a jolly good time with this
St. Patty's Project...
and if your leprechaun isn't there in the morning....
dont fret...
those lil' stinkers are very tricky...
those lil' stinkers are very tricky...
It's fun just to see that he was there and got away with the pile of gold you left for him!

Have a Great st. Patty's Day!
This is a cute idea for the little ones, Shell! And the chocolate loot for the mom isn't a bad idea either!!
ReplyDeleteU are so fun! My St. Patrick's Day traditions aren't nearly as cool!
ReplyDeleteYes... we got the prize and my girls set them all up the day they came! We have thoroughly enjoyed them! THANKS!! You rock!!
Very cute post! My children used to set leprechaun traps when they were young. They used to "bait" theirs with green M&Ms. My 32 year old son insists they caught one once! : )
