The top is collapsible so when the leprechaun climbed to the top he fell right through. Luke had all his wishes planned out too: the ability to change the weather to whatever he wants, unlimited money and laser eyes (like cyclops on x-men). It was pretty funny because it was all he could talk about leading up to St. Patricks Day. Jacob was a little disturbed that he could even still believe in leprechauns. I was going to put some chocolate coins in the bottom while they were in bed, but I couldn't find any in the store so I just settled for some Werther's originals. The next day I decided to tell Luke that leprechauns weren't real.
On Sunday, during sacrament meeting he asked me "so, are genie's real?". I told him no. This lead to "is Santa Claus real?". Nope. "Wait, then who brings us all the candy and stuff?". We do. "Easter bunny?". Yep, not real. He had a real awakening that day.

Awww, sad! I do this with my class every year, we make traps and then see if they caught anything. It's fun!
My kids have asked about some of these things and they won't believe me when I tell them the truth!
WOW! All in one day...awesome!!! LOL!!!!! Last year my kids decided that Santa was real for some bizarro reason. I couldn't persuade Max otherwise even when he walked in on me wrapping his presents. Dang peer pressure!
There are worse things to walk in on I guess.
My kids are obsessed with this since they first learned about them 5 years ago. They steal all my cereal boxes and make a huge mess. Brynn tried double-sided tape this year to get them caught as they walked in... :)
Poor Luke, all of his realities crashing to pieces in one day...
