Easy St. Patrick’s Day Treat

No one said you have to give out a St. Patrick’s Day treat…but what if you did?

Impress the little pals in your crew with these delightful St. Patrick’s
Day treats that tie in all the love for rainbows and a pot of gold.

Supplies You Will Need:

• Twizzlers Rainbow Licorice (the rainbow) – amazon link provided…but can be found much cheaper at Target or Walmart!
• Individually wrapped Rolos (see bulk candy aisle) (the gold!)
• Clear treat bags (twist ties are typically included in the package)
• Foam Shamrock Stickers (optional)

• 

• 

How To:

• Drop 1-4 Rolos in each treat bag
• Sort the licorice strands into rainbow piles. Each pile will contain 1 red, 1 orange, 1 yellow, 1 green, 1 blue and 1 purple.
• Hold the 6 pieces of licorice together and gently bend the pile into a rainbow arc.
• Place the rainbow arc of licorice in the treat bag.
• Use the twist tie to seal the treat bag closed.
• Optional: Add a fun shamrock foam sticker to the top of the bag for added decor.

Extension Idea:

Our crew loved to build Leprechaun Traps to try and catch those sneaky Leprechauns!

Sometimes I would place this St. Patrick’s Day treat inside their trap and tell the kids that the Leprechaun got away but left them a treat!

Can you spot it in the homemade trap below?
