We had a mysterious message left by a leprechaun and we went on a hunt to find him and his gold. We followed clues that led us around the building and never found him, but when we came back to our room, we found he had been there, left a mess, and left us some gold candy coins. We used some boxes that we decorated and we made a special "trap" to see if we can catch him.
