the trap.

this year connor was bound and determined to catch the leprechaun. he thought for a few days about what kind of trap he would do to catch him. he decided to use lincoln logs to make a tower. then he made a ladder putting pennies on each step to lure him in and cause him to fall inside the tower and be trapped! he thoughtfully put a glow stick in the bottom of the tower so he'd see where he was going. a pretty good plan i'd say. 

that night he prayed he'd be able to catch a leprechaun...he also added that if he couldn't catch one, that the leprechaun would build "something cool" with the pile of lincoln logs next to the trap. such a cute boy. well, sadly, the leprechaun got away, but his construction skills did not disappoint!!

the original trap, the pennies were replaced with gold nuggets. he left the pennies in the bottom of the tower and that sneaky leprechaun built a door and snuck out the back!

he even left the door open on his way out!
