Easter is a wonderful occasion for family and friends to spend the day celebrating together and with an entire day to fill, we’ve narrowed down the top 10 Easter activities to do this upcoming Easter Sunday to keep you and the whole family delightfully entertained!
Easter Egg Hunt: No Easter is complete without a traditional Easter egg hunt. Fill your hidden eggs with treats and fun prizes for your family to find! You can also hide clues in the eggs and make it more of a scavenger hunt with a huge Easter basket prizes at the end! The great thing about an Easter egg hunt is that it not only works for kids, but also for adults too. All you have to do is fill the eggs with more age-appropriate gifts and prizes depending on who’s hunting.
Decorate Easter Eggs: This is a great activity for the whole family! You can dye the eggs and then decorate them with whatever ornaments, glitter and extra details you want! If the eggs are hard-boiled, be sure to dispose of them if they’ve been left out of the fridge longer than 2 hours.
Outdoor Games: There are lots more activities to do on Easter in addition to an outdoors Easter egg hunt. Some examples include an egg and spoon rally, an Easter bunny corn hole, a potato sack race or how about pin the tail on the bunny?
Easter Crafts Party: Invite your kids’ friends over for a fun Easter crafts party and make some cute and Easter inspired creations together! There are plenty of online inspirations to find online, like peek-a-boo clothespin eggs, paper bag bunny puppets, Easter cards, handprint chicks, salt-dough Easter egg necklaces & more!
Easter Brunch: An Easter brunch is a delicious way to kick off your Easter festivities before so much chocolate intake. You can make your brunch menu family friendly or design a menu that fits the tastes of a more a more adult get-together among friends! Either way…good food is always a hit especially on a special occasion like Easter! Remember no Easter brunch is complete with some freshly baked hot-crossed buns!
Baking Easter Treats: The best thing about baking on Easter is that there are so many ways to decorate your baked goods with an Easter theme in mind! For instance, you can make cute little bunny face cupcakes, or ice cookies to be little chicks or Easter eggs! There are so many Easter inspired desert decoration ideas online, we’re sure you’ll have no problem finding ways to take your desserts to the next level.
Have a picnic: Pack a picnic for you and your family and head out to a local park to have some fun and fresh air while enjoying some yummy snacks. And even if the sun is not on your side that day, you can still have a fun picnic indoors too! Just push aside some furniture, lay out a blanket and enjoy your spread in the middle of the living room while playing fun games and music!
Movie Marathon: Sundays are known for relaxing, so give yourself some time to unwind and spend the day cuddling up on the couch with your favourite Easter snacks and watching movies that will make you and your family laugh!
Decorate an Easter Tree: Who’s to say decorating a tree is reserved just for Christmas? This is fun activity that the whole family can do together. Pile on the Easter inspired decorations on a tree (can be indoor or outdoors). This is a sure-fire way to bring a little magic to the day!
Do Some Planting: Plant some fresh bulbs from your local garden centre! This is a great way to introduce the little ones to gardening and at the same time you can embrace the Spring season.
