Now to top off the excitement of St. Patty's day, Every year a sneaky little leprechaun comes to visit on St. Patrick's day. He causes a little bit of mischief and A LOT of excitement! He has visited my house and my classroom! In the past he has put all of the chairs onto the kitchen table, hid chocolate coins, left green footprints and created a bit of a mess.
I always laugh at the above photo, I guess they figured since the chairs were on the table they could also stand on the table. And being a dedicated blogger I grabbed the camera first and then told them to get down. Ha!

ReplyDeleteFun! So glad the naughty little leprechaun has fun at your house too.
ReplyDeleteAt our house, he pees "green" in the toilets and doesn't flush!
Thanks so much for sharing, love the do-a-dot stamping game.
Warmly,
