Have you ever wondered why you can never find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow? It’s usually because a pesky Leprechaun has beaten you to it!
What are Leprechauns?
This post contains affiliate links for your convenience.
Leprechauns are the mischievous Irish Fairies associated with St Patrick’s Day. A day to honour the Patron Saint of Ireland, Saint Patrick, each year on March 17th. Leprechauns may have the money, but they sure don’t have the looks. It really is worth setting a trap to see if you can catch one though, hold his stare and he has to tell you where he has hidden the gold.
Saint Patrick’s Day
Saint Patrick’s Day is celebrated by Irish people all over the world. Fans of the holiday dress up in green, hang shamrocks around their home and drink lot of Guinness (adults only!).
It is also a time for children to enjoy the many different crafts and activities associated with this fun festival, including those centred around the famous Pot O’Gol at the end of the rainbow.
