A VERY BELATED ST. PATRICK'S DAY

(We have been having technical difficulties with our computer, so I am a little behind, sorry...)


Corinne had to make and demonstrate a leprechaun trap for school on St. Patrick's Day. Since I have almost zero creativity, I put Tyson in charge of this one.

Corinne was told that leprechauns love things that are shiny and sparkly (just like Corinne!), that they are very little, and that they are sneaky and like to break the rules (not like Corinne).





The idea was that the sneaky little leprechaun would see the gold coin and climb the ladder (made by Tyson) to get to it. Then he would fall through the green tissue paper on top and end up stuck in the (kleenex) box!


(Doesn't she look cute in this picture?)


This was our first project (of many, I'm sure) where the parents stayed up late doing most of the work! Corinne did decorate it, and it turned out great.

Those are the cool projects, and the ones the kids will remember.

That is adorable. It makes me miss elementary school. I LIVED for projects like that.

Nice job, Tyson and Corinne.
