Fun ideas to celebrate the Easter holiday with your family.
Eggstravaganza – Children of all ages love to color and decorate Easter eggs! Coloring eggs has been a part of spring festivities for centuries. In both Passover and Easter traditions, the egg symbolizes new life. This year consider involving the whole family in an evening of Easter egg decorating. Younger children kids have fun using Q-tips to dip into egg colorings to decorate their eggs.
Easter games - Keep the excitement going after the egg hunt by playing some of these games:
Easter Obstacle Course - Separate children into two teams. Provide each team with one spoon and a sugar egg or plastic Easter egg. Each team needs to navigate its way around and through various obstacles without dropping its eggs.
Easter Bunny Hop – Conduct a relay race for two or three teams. Each player must cover a certain distance while jumping with a plastic egg between his/her knees.
Egg Roll - Using only their noses, children must roll an egg across the finish line. This also makes a good relay.
Easter baskets
Before Easter arrives, get creative and help your children make their own Easter baskets out of clean half-gallon milk or juice cartons. Cut a 4” piece off the bottom of the milk carton. Clean thoroughly and cut a piece of craft paper to wrap around the container. Glue craft sticks to create a fence around the container and let dry. When dry, use small flowers or decorative craft foam pieces to decorate the container. Drill a hole to opposite sides. Twist two pipe cleaners together to make a handle. Attach handle on container and fill with Easter grass. This also makes a very nice Easter table decoration.
