Every St. Patrick's Day we build a leprechaun trap to catch that little green rascal and every year he gets away!

 Not this year.

This is the year our daughter swears she WILL catch a leprechaun! 

I wanted to help her out with some detective work so I put together this "Catch a Leprechaun Kit" filled with all the essentials one would need to catch that shamrock-lovin' bandit. With the help of Oriental Trading, you can build an adorable kit your kids will have a blast with! 

What you'll need:

•  DIY Lunch Box Tin
• Gold Chocolate Coins
•  Plush Rainbows
• Plush St. Patrick's Day Leprechaun
• Rainbow Glitter Spiral Notepad
• Magnifying Glasses
• Lucky Leprechaun Binoculars Craft Kit
• Leprechaun Footprint Floor Decals
• Shamrock Shaped Favor Containers

To catch that wee little fellow, you'll need a handy kit to keep everything in one place. This DIY lunchbox was the perfect size to hold all the leprechaun catching necessities.

Everyone knows leprechauns are attracted to shiny things and shiny things are usually found at the end of the rainbow. I filled a cellophane bag with chocolate gold coins and plush rainbows and tied it all together with green baker's twine.  Print and cut out the leprechaun bait tag HERE and tie it to the bag. 

A little rainbow glitter notebook is the perfect way to record insights, thoughts, ideas, questions, and observations about those little green guys.

The lucky leprechaun binoculars craft kit is a fun activity for the kids to put together. Once it's ready to go, the little detectives will be on their way to spotting those tiny creatures!

While the St. Patrick's Day sleuths will be following clues to catch a leprechaun, they'll be needing a place to put the evidence. From gold dust to green glitter, there's bound to be evidence that needs to be labeled and placed somewhere for safe keeping. These shamrock-shaped favor containers are a perfect fit to collect all the proof that leprechauns are real!

Looks like we're getting closer to finding our emerald wearing guy!

Woohoo! It looks like that leprechaun bait worked and all our hard work paid off! We followed tiny green footprints and found our adorable little leprechaun at the end of the rainbow! 

Kids will have a blast this St. Patrick's Day with their leprechaun catching kits and who knows, you just might catch a wee little lad yourself! 

Thank you for stopping by!
