Leprechaun Hat
It’s the season for Leprechauns and St Paddy’s Day fun so show the kids how to make this Leprechaun Hat. The little imps will love hopping around like a wee Leprechaun.
Trivia:
According to legend, leprechauns are cobblers by trade and are known for their love of gold and their skill in making shoes. They are also said to be very secretive and elusive, often leading people on wild goose chases in search of their treasure.
