I love holidays with the kids. I know many people now a days think we need to tune it down a notch (or five hundred) with how we celebrate but having a sensory kid it really helps me have a theme to go with for some sensory play. Yes, a tricky little leprechaun visits our house and plays tricks and leaves small fun stuff for the kids. I love it, they love it, win win in my book. I asked Lil Lady if she wanted to build a Leprechaun trap and she was thrilled to. I asked her what she wanted and she chose to get a cup and paint it green. Deal! She wanted a paintbrush but I told her I didn't know where they were (perks of moving recently...I am able to get away with "forgetting" lots!) She then happily started to finger paint! Something that a year ago she wouldn't have even dreamt of doing! Such progress!!! She did manage to paint quite cleanly though, only got a few fingers dirty but heck, I don't care, she did it and I was proud. She even had the flu bug while doing it but stayed happy!
Here's the trap Lil Man and Daddy made! Haha, I love them.
