Keep the kids entertained this Easter with some super fun Easter activities..
Easter is almost here which means chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate! Not only this but the kids are off school and it’s a great time to get them involved in some super fun Easter activities, so it’s time to get creative! Here’s some fun and easy Easter activities and ideas for you to make your Easter weekend super exciting!
Easter Egg Hunts
- Standard egg hunt – Keep it simple, buy some mini chocolate eggs and hide them around the house or garden which the children then have to collect. This can be as simple or as difficult as you like.
- Blind Folded – This is great for when there’s more than one child in the house. Put a chocolate egg in a place of your choice, player one must be blindfolded and the other must direct player one to help them find the egg!
- Clues – Write down your first clue which will direct the player to the first egg, with that egg will be a second clue to help the player find the next egg, and so on.
- Alphabet Eggs – Get 26 plastic eggs and tape a letter to each of them. Hide these around your house or garden, the hunt ends when all letters are found. This one is great for kids learning the alphabet, once finished the prize could be a big egg!
