This St. Patrick’s Day Indoor Scavenger Hunt fun is the perfect way to keep the leprechaun magic going – especially if that tricky little guy escaped the trap again this year. Instead of just leaving behind a small treat, have him send the kids on one last mischievous adventure through the house.
St. Patrick’s Day Scavenger Hunt
When my kids were little, St. Patrick’s Day morning was all about leprechaun traps and signs of mischief left around the house. Even though they’re teens now, it still makes me giggle when I think about how seriously they took catching that tricky little guy.
If the leprechaun escapes the trap again this year, this scavenger hunt is a fun follow-up. Maybe he left behind a St. Patrick’s Day treat or maybe he’s sending the kids on one last chase before disappearing for good.
These clues will lead them all through the house, building excitement every step of the way.
