Looking for a Leprechaun Song
Sung to the tune of "The Muffin Man"
Oh, Have you seen a leprechaun,
A leprechaun, a leprechaun?
Oh, have you seen a leprechaun
Who comes from Ireland?
Among the shamrocks he may hide
He may hide, he may hide.
Among the shamrocks he may hide
So catch him if you can!

Rainbow Round Up
For this activity you will need a supply of crepe paper streamers in rainbow colors such as red, yellow, green, blue, orange and purple.
Cut streamers in two-three foot lengths. Give each child two different colored streamers. Have the children stand in a circle. When you call out a color, the children who have that color wave it into the center of the circle. If you call out "Rainbow" all the children wave their various colors at once.
