So my cute SIL Kristy is very creative and last year she had her son build a Leprechaun trap to see if he could catch one. Well he wasn't lucky enough and didn't catch one, so he tried again this year. My kids (Hailey) were lucky and since they were in town over St Patty's day they got to have a sleep over at my parents and help build the trap this year!
They used lucky charms to try and get the leprechaun get onto the wax paper and fall into the hole!
Hailey was so excited! She couldn't wait to catch the little leopard (that's what she kept calling it) she was going to bring it home with her and make it a bed!

Well the leprechaun was a little too smart and saw right through the trap! He left foot prints all over. And left candy for all the kids. He even turned the milk green!
The kids that morning
Hailey and Ethan checkin' out their loot!She had also printed up a cute little letter from the Leprechaun.
Thanks Kristy for letting my kids in on the St Patricks Day fun!

That's really cute. Taylor learned about the holiday more this year & kept wishing to catch him. We'll have to remember this for next year.
isn't kristy so clever?! i bet they had so much fun. we miss you guys!
That is a cute idea! My kids don't know what a leprachaun is- I'm too boring to play along I guess.
That is so clever. I'm always wondering what I can do with St Patty's to make it a cooler holiday.
