5 Fun Easter-themed Activities To Try With Your Little Ones At Home This Easter 2020!
Yes, we are most likely going to be celebrating Easter 2020 at home, regardless of the current situation, guess what every year it is the same as your kids get a week’s break from schools. It’s however important that as parents you make these Easter holidays feel the same as every year so that your kids are happy. It may be a little different as your kids won’t be able to interact with the neighbour’s kids for example, but remember they have ‘you’ i.e. their parents to celebrate with. So, why not make it fun & use this time to bond with your children rather than complain about the situation and get them stressed too. The words ‘lockdown’ is somewhat a harsh term used that has left most feeling unpleasant, but remember you are at your home not in some prison, & if you are an optimist parent you will see this as a blessing. After all, you get to spend Easter at home with the people you love the most including your favourite little humans! However, we all know that handling kids 24/7 can be a task especially if you have curious little monkeys who can’t sit still & yay for the e-learning but since it’s their break technically, you still need to keep them occupied. There are many activities you can do with your children within the safety of your home. Below is a list of fun activities that we have picked for you to try at home with your children!
1. Easter Egg Hunt-
With Easter around the corner, you would definitely want to be planning an Easter Egg hunt at home. Sit with your kids and plan a date. Traditionally this is done on Easter, but hey you don’t have to go by the rules. Be creative. If you don’t have baskets you can make paper mache ones using balloons with your kids or just use any other alternative such as a plastic bowl. However, making paper mache baskets are a lot more fun!! For eggs again either use paper mache to make them or some chocolate eggs. Get Creative!
2. Make Some Fun Easter Costumes-
Who said Easter’s got to be boring? This activity is lots of fun, fun, fun! Get creative by making some cute Easter outfits with your children. If you have pets you can even include them in the fun. In fact, while you are at this visit our Play & Win section as we have a fun competition for you. Get your kids involved and who knows you could be one lucky winner too!
3. Do Some Baking–
Staying at home is not a life sentence for you or your child! Make sure you get them involved in some fun activities like baking some cupcakes or cookies. If you want to try out one of the cake recipes we have you can visit our Bon Appetit section and pick one of the cakes or desserts. Remember whilst baking or cooking keep your eyes on your kids and give them age-appropriate things to do!
4. Get Artsy-
Well with all that toilet paper hoarding, guess what there’s something fun & useful to try with the kids! Jokes apart, but you can make some fun animals from toilet tubes. You can make chicks & bunnies and use this to decorate your home for Easter. Another idea to try out with the kids is finger painting. A fun Easter activity that kids will love for sure!
5. Get Creative & Make Your Own Games-
Kids love to play & why not create your own games such as an Easter Bingo or a board game or an easter puzzle. You can always Google up ideas & then add your own little twist to the games.
