This year for St. Patricks Day, we decided to build a trap to catch a Leprechaun.  If we caught him he would tell us where his gold was hidden.  If he got away he would most likely punish us by playing tricks on us.  Our trap looks like a Leprechaun hat.  We put a rock that we had painted to look like gold on top of a piece of felt over the top of the can. knowing that Leprechauns love to break rules we built a ladder out of sticks and put a sign that said Danger do not climb.  When the Leprechaun tried to get the gold he would fall into the can and be trapped. We were unsuccessful.  He tipped the can over and got away.  We woke up to green milk and toilet water, rocks in our shoes, tiny bites in the boys sandwiches at lunch, and the worst trick of all, Riley and Tian popped out in Chicken Pox.
