Fredericksburg Elementary Preschoolers tried to catch a leprechaun today! They built traps at home with their families and set them up in the classroom before they went down to the kitchen to mix up the “magic powder” the leprechauns left for snack! When they returned to their classroom they found a huge mess that they had to pick up! No one was lucky enough to catch a leprechaun, but they did leave us gold coins and necklaces to celebrate!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!
