Part of Luke's homework this month was to create a leprechaun trap. He was told to incorporate things that "attract" leprechauns such as: the color green, rainbows, sparkly things, gold coins, Lucky Charms cereal, and four-leaf clovers.
After we talked about a few different ways that he might trap a leprechaun, we decided upon a design. I helped only by making suggestions, providing supplies, doing some sketching to provide an outline that he could cut out, and then helping with the glue gun as he put it together.
I think it turned out great, and he was so proud.
The idea is that the leprechaun will be tempted to climb the ladder and will then find the Lucky Charms and see the gold coin dangling over the trap door. When he jumps to catch the coin, he will fall into the tissue box and be trapped!
