Directions
Step 1 Download and print out Leprechaun Leg Name Craftivity. We've made it easy on you by providing you both a color and black and white version depending on if you want to use colored cardstock, use crayons or markers to color, or use a version that's printed in color!
Step 2 If you use the black and white version, have your preschooler color the leprechaun's jacket tail and the leprechaun's shorts.
. 
Step 3 Cut out each part of the downloadable craft and glue the jacket tail to the back of the shorts.
. 
.
Step 4 For each letter in your child’s name, cut the top layer of the leprechaun’s legs into that many equal pieces.
. 
. 
Step 5 Glue the stripes onto the leprechaun's legs. On each of the stripes (yellow parts of the legs), your preschooler will write one letter of his/her name! Alternatively, you can write one letter on each stripe and then have your child build his/her name by gluing the letters in the correct order.
