St. Patrick's Day is a huge holiday in the Emerald Isle, but also in the United States where so many people of Irish descent raise their families. Why not celebrate with this delightful leprechaun coloring page created exclusively for us by children's book author and illustrator, Melanie Hope Greenberg!
Even if you don't celebrate St. Patrick and all things green, a leprechaun dancing on a pot of gold, holding a shamrock appeals to the mischievous sprite in all of us. Plus, who doesn't who wish for a little magical luck from time to time?
And of course it's much easier to catch a leprechaun on a coloring page than to capture the little elf in a leprechaun trap or find a real pot of gold at the end of the rainbow!
So print out the leprechaun coloring page, read our recommended Irish Folktale Books for your holiday celebration and enjoy the luck of the Irish!
