Easter Cards
Give each child a blank card and some colorful markers or crayons, and let them get creative!
Easter is such a fun time of year, and creating unique cards can be a great way for children to get creative and really showcase their personalities. With some blank cards and colorful markers or crayons, kids can explore their imagination, practice drawing and writing, and come up with truly amazing designs.
Whether they want to draw some cute bunnies or add some brightly colored flowers, the possibilities are endless!
Not only is it a great way to bond with your kids and get creative together, but the finished products will also make your loved ones feel extra special this Easter season.
And all of that writing and drawing is a great way to sneak in some homeschool learning!
Easter Egg Hunt
Hide eggs around the yard or house filled with treats, and have the kids search for them.
There’s nothing quite like watching your little ones excitedly search for hidden treasures around the house or yard. This year, it’s all about keeping things simple yet fun, and an Easter egg hunt is a sure bet.
Hide colorful plastic eggs filled with yummy treats in unexpected places and watch their eyes light up as they find them. The anticipation and thrill of the hunt is a memory that they will carry with them for years to come.
Some of the things that we have put in our egg hunt eggs over the years include animal crackers, jelly beans, Starbursts, coins, and Goldfish crackers.
Egg Decorating
Grab some hard-boiled eggs, paint, dye, and other craft materials to create some colorful Easter eggs!
When it comes to decorating eggs, you can let your imagination run wild with different patterns and colors or even add fun embellishments, like stickers or glitter.
And the best part? Egg decorating is a great activity for the whole family to enjoy together. We snap pictures of our egg-dying antics every year, and they always make us smile!
So, gather your loved ones, put on some music, and make some memories while you create some beautiful Easter eggs.
