Easter is an exciting holiday for both kids and adults; filled with fun and creativity. There are plenty of activities to keep your little ones entertained - from decorating eggs to Easter egg hunts. Here are some Easter activities for kids that you can try this year:
-
Decorate Easter eggs: Decorating Easter eggs is a classic activity that never gets old. You can use different techniques such as dyeing, painting, or even adding stickers to create unique designs. You can use real or artificial eggs (wooden or plastic).
-
Easter egg hunt: An Easter egg hunt is another classic activity that kids love. You can hide plastic eggs around the house or backyard and let the kids search for them. To make it more exciting (or if you are trying to limit chocolate intake!), you can add small toys or treats inside the eggs.
-
Easter crafts: There are plenty of Easter crafts that kids can enjoy, such as making Easter baskets, creating Easter cards, Easter bunting, bilby colouring in, felt bilby creations, or even making bilby or bunny ears.
-
Easter baking: Baking Easter treats is a great way to bond with your kids and create some delicious treats. You can make cookies, cupcakes, or even a cake with Easter-themed decorations. Yuuummmmm.
-
Easter story time: Reading Easter stories to your kids can be a fun and relaxing activity. You can find plenty of themed books that are perfect for kids of all ages. We love to incorporate the Easter Bilby books in our reading time.
-
Easter scavenger hunt: A scavenger hunt is another fun activity that you can do with your kids. Create a list of Easter themed items for your kids to find around the house or backyard. You don't need to just stick to placed items (like chocolate), incorporate nature by adding trees or landmarks as part of the hunt. Good luck!
-
Easter movie night: Watching Easter movies together is a great way to relax and bond with your kids. There are plenty of Easter themed movies that are perfect for kids of all ages. Or better yet, a kids Easter movie night, where the parents get to hang out too!
Easter is a great time to spend with your kids and create fun memories together. These Easter activities for kids are just a few ideas to get you started.
