As the days get a little bit warmer and the sun starts to peek through these rainy days, I can feel my mood getting better and better. And I think it’s happening with my boys too.

We’ve had some really good days over here in the past couple of weeks!

St. Patrick’s Day is right around the corner and since Oscar came home with all of his February artwork I can tell his school is already moving on from the Valentines and hearts and candy. And so are we!

We have tons of leprechaun trap ideas but why not BE the leprechaun? Now we’re talking.

Last week I decided to try a little craft with BOTH kids, which is really a post in itself. It was a little crazy, but we ended up with two adorable little leprechauns so I am calling it a win!

We made these leprechaun hats and they love them! I have a feeling we’ll be searching for that pot of gold all month. Maybe I’ll even buy a box of Lucky Charms. Who knows!

DIY Leprechaun Hat Template for kids!

I created the leprechaun hat template below to make your own hats if you like. The instructions are on the 2nd page of the pdf and it’s super easy to make!

This hat would also make a great class craft so if you are a teacher looking to make St. Patrick’s Day crafts with your class, I think this would be great for any Preschool age and even Kindergarten.

All you need is some cardstock, scissors, glue and glitter to be on your way! If you want to add the shamrock, floral wire or pipe cleaners work great!

Be sure to print out the template and instructions below and have fun! Every year I have teachers from all over the US using my template in their classrooms.

I love the idea of all those little leprechauns running around!
