6. Create Leprechaun Traps

A trending and creative St. Patrick’s Day activity for kids is building leprechaun traps. Using shoeboxes, paper rolls, glitter, and craft supplies, children can design traps to “catch” a leprechaun overnight.

Even though leprechauns are mythical creatures from Irish folklore, the activity stimulates imagination, engineering skills, and problem-solving abilities.

Parents can leave behind gold coins the next morning to make it magical.
