I gotta be honest: I've never, ever done anything to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. My mom didn't do anything for it when I was growing up, so I never even thought about it. This year, though, Kaden's teacher showed a video about kids making leprechaun traps and he just HAD to make one. I got out the supplies, but made him do it all on his own.
I realized the night before, however, that somehow the leprechaun would have to come. Crap. I got a little fairy-Barbie doll from the girls' stash and dipped her feet in green (washable) paint.

| The leprechaun came! |
The leprechaun left some of his gold in his attempt to get away, which took about .2 seconds for the kids to realize it was chocolate. Kaden was really, really sad that he didn't catch the leprechaun and get his three wishes (all were toys, FYI). He's already started working on a bigger, more elaborate trap for next year.
On a random note, here's another great picture from Kaden:
I love how great he is with the details.
Very cute leprechaun ideas. I love all the details in Kaden's drawings. He is good!
