Happy Saint Patrick s Day

Our St Patrick's Day started like all the others... Princess reading the scroll left on her bed from the Leprechaun.
It gives her the first hint in her Rainbow Hunt.

The first hint this year was ..Behind a pillow that is red..placed upon a Princess's bed.
The note placed there said go find the cup decorated with orange..
beneath which she found..within some yellow blooms right here in this room..The daffodils hid a note that said..next to the sink
is a blue dish that holds neither food nor drink

Which told her to put her wee hand in the pocket of her Momma's
indigo jeans where she found her last clue..
Your prize will be found in a bag of violet
sitting upon the bed of a cat.
We took the prize (a craft set,nail polish and small bag of chocolate covered coconut jelly bellys)
and opened it up while we ate some Irish soda bread fresh out of the oven.
We hope you all had the Luck of the Irish with you today, or at least a wee bit of fun. ;-)
We sure did.

Knowledge which is acquired under compulsion has no hold on the mind. Therefore do not use compulsion, but let early education be a sort of amusement; you will then be better able to discover the child's natural bent .
