St. Patrick's Day Crafts
Leprechaun Trap
This craft is fun to put together for young kids. Let them
decorate the outside and decide what kind of "bait" they should
use to catch the leprechaun (you could try the
Leprechaun Hat Cookies).
Have them write a note that has a wish on it, and put it in the
trap along with the bait the night before St. Patrick's Day. In
the morning their note and the bait should be gone, and maybe
their wish will come true.
What you will need:
1. Hot glue gun
2. Decorative items
3. Wooden craft sticks
Directions:
1. Plug in the hot glue gun and give it time to
warm up.
2. Begin creating the box by gluing a row of craft
sticks onto two other craft sticks.
3. Create the sides of the box by gluing craft
sticks on opposite sides.
4. Make a lid the same way you made the bottom of
the box, but do not glue it to the box.
5. Decorate the outside.
6. Use another craft stick to hold up the lid for
the trap.
