Decorate Easter Eggs

You can use techniques like dipping eggs in colorful dyes, drawing designs with markers, or adding stickers and glitter for extra sparkle. Let your kiddos’ imaginations run wild and watch plain eggs turn into cute and colorful artwork.
Easter Egg Hunt
What’s Easter without an egg hunt? It’s an absolute must-have activity for the holiday. Your kids get to run around looking for colorful eggs filled with toys and treats! To make it even more enjoyable, hide some eggs in easy-to-find spots for younger children and trickier spots for older kids. You can hide non-candy surprises like small toys or stickers to keep things interesting. Don’t forget to have plenty of baskets on hand, and get ready for some hopping happy hunters!
Easter Crafts
Easter crafts are a great way to keep kids busy and entertained while you prepare for the festivities! They get to use their imaginations and make festive crafts that they can display around the house. Busy parents can look for craft kits that include everything you need, like this Personalize Your Own Drawstring Bag from Purple Ladybug! Your kids can decorate their bags and then use them to place all the Easter eggs they found during the hunt! It’s a fun and functional craft activity!
