St. Patrick’s Day is on a Saturday this year and I am so excited! I don’t have to work and I can plan something special for my kids. My kids love to make traps to try and catch the leprechaun. I thought it would be fun to create a little family party out of making a leprechaun trap to try and trap that sneaky guy! My kids are so funny with this and get so excited to try to catch him! My husband and I laugh every year how involved this gets!
I created this party ahead of time so I could share all the details!
I created this download to help all of you plan ahead and to make these family nights easier and stress-free. Use this printable to keep you organized and use the creative tips and grocery list to put it all together.
Send a sweet invitation in their lunchbox or set out at breakfast to get them excited. They will come home from school so excited and ready to have some fun! This cute invitation is a FREE PRINTABLE for you too!
I gathered up a few boxes and picked up a few things you see below at the Dollar Store.
I created a free printable for this family night. An 8X10 print for you to use in a frame and set out.
My kids had a blast creating their traps.
You can’t have a party without some fun snacks! Make sure to set out some yummy treats for your kids to enjoy while they create!
Here are some fun snack ideas you can make for your Leprechaun trap party!
Rainbow Popcorn
All you do is pop some popcorn and add rainbow mini M&M’s to the popcorn. (I did try to take out all the brown colored M&M’s). I love a sweet and salty treat!
Lucky Cookies
Bake some sugar cookies and frost. Next, have toppings set out in little cups for them to decorate their cookies. I used Lucky charms marshmallows, green shamrock sprinkles, mini rainbow M&M’s, and green M&M’s.
We had a fun day and I think this would be a great tradition for my kids when they are little! I hope I have inspired you to get creative with your kids and try to catch that silly leprechaun!
