March 17th, St. Patrick's Day,is just around the corner. That means on the eve of the Irish celebration that the pesky leprechauns will be up to their old tricks. 

You see, leprechauns like to play tricks, make messes, and sneak around. If you catch one he must give you three wishes or a gold coin to buy his freedom. Be careful because this is where things may go wrong.

Your job is to build a leprechaun trap, so we can try to catch one! Remember, leprechauns are tricky creatures, so our traps will need to be clever! Your trap must be unique and original. Leprechauns are attracted to the color green and love shiny things! You will need to learn as much as you can about simple machines because they will make designing the trap easier.
