We were looking for activities a few weeks ago on the computer and Kade spotted this Leprechaun trap and was set on making one. We made gold rocks and put them over a trap door so when the Leprechaun came to get the gold he'd fall down into the trap. Kade checked it every day to see if we'd caught a Leprechaun, even though I told him every time that they only come on the 17
th. Well they checked it every hour today and when there was finally evidence that we'd caught one they didn't seem too excited-- maybe because he "escaped." In his escape he dropped his hat in the trap so we still have that. Kade couldn't figure out why he didn't take our gold; I told him it was because the smart Leprechaun and he knew it wasn't real gold. The boys wanted pancakes and eggs for dinner so I threw in a few drops of green food coloring and they were pretty excited about that-- even thought they looked awful. The eggs were slime-green; they tasted fine though. :)
