Are you looking for an easy, simple and cute leprechaun craft to make with your littles?
This easy paper plate leprechaun craft was so much fun to put together.
I used one of our free leprechaun printable sheets as a template to create the leprechaun.
My LO then went in and glued the pieces together and made her very own DIY leprechaun craft using glue, pom poms and a little smiling face.

I printed out the leprechaun template and cut out the hat and beard.
Then, I used these pieces to trace on a green, orange, yellow and black set of construction paper sheets.
I set the paper plate, the construction paper pieces and elmers glue on our small table for creating our leprechaun craft.
My LO added the pieces onto the back of a paper plate by using the Elmer’s glue.
At the very end, she drew a simple face (or you can cut out round circles for eyes and a mouth piece with the construction paper for gluing).
Then, we decided to add orange pom poms on the beard.
We used a bit of Elmers glue and scotch tape for this.
Scotch tape is not necessary and Elmer’s glue will work just fine on its own.
Voila! Here is a fun set of leprechaun crafts you can try out with preschoolers or homeschoolers for learning about the St. Patricks Day holiday!
