Leprechauns dress in green. They love that color! Use green things to attract them.
Leprechauns love gold! Leave some gold out. You can even make a sign saying there is free gold!
Leprechauns store their gold at the end of the rainbow. Make a rainbow or use rainbow-colored things. They might think there is gold nearby!
Leprechauns are tiny. They might get tricked into climbing ladders or get caught underneath something small.
