Creative Easter Activities For Kids

Jo Caddy

Easter is one of those holidays where one’s creativity has a chance to really shine. Along with Christmas, it’s a holiday time that provides a great opportunity for kids to really stretch the boundaries of their imaginations and strengthen their creative skills.

But as busy parents we don’t always have the time to sit down and brainstorm new and exciting ideas to keep our little one’s on a constant journey of new experiences. So I’ve saved you a little bit of time and done the research for you. I came up with a few creative ideas, and found some great posts from some awesome bloggers who have written about all kinds of creative easter activities for kids.

Printables

There are some great resources on Etsy to help you get creative and keep the kids entertained, and one of them is printables. From colouring pictures to drawing activities to printable decorations, your sure to find something the kids will love. All you have to do is download the pictures, print them out and let the kids enjoy them. Here are just a few stores that sell printables.

Well, it’s almost that time of year again when it becomes perfectly acceptable to over-indulge in egg-shaped chocolate & an ever-increasing variety of hot-cross buns (Mocha are my fav). It’s a time when some of us celebrate the death and resurrection of our Lord and others embrace the magic of the Easter bunny, and some do both. However you choose to celebrate Easter, one thing is for certain, it’s a great time of year to get together with your family and/or friends to enjoy a meal and one another’s company.

As with every holiday, Easter comes with a lot of fun traditions. Chocolate Easter egg hunts, painting eggshells, Sunday lunch, etc. Some of my fondest memories are from Easter as a kid. I remember going to church Easter Friday, then waking up early for an Easter egg hunt Sunday morning before going to church again and enjoying lunch with the family, after which my sister and I would pig out on our stash of chocolate Easter eggs. We usually had enough chocolate to last a couple of weeks at least, if we were strong enough not to eat it all at once that is. 30 years later, the memories I made during these times are still invaluable to me and something I have loved passing down to my own children.

Unlike Christmas, Easter is far more relaxed and doesn’t call for a huge amount of fuss, you only need a few small things to bring the season to life for your family and in my opinion, nothing says Easter like handmade items. Handmade Easter eggs, Easter hats, Easter baskets, etc, etc, and what better place is there to find exciting handmade items, than on the world’s best handmade marketplace, Etsy?

I’ve done the hard work for you and found some of the best Easter items on Etsy to make this Easter truly memorable.
