6 Fun Easter Activities You Can Do At Home With The Kids

Holiday plans cancelled?

With the burden of home-schooling no longer an issue for the next two weeks, our couches seem just as welcome a relief as that (now cancelled) holiday to a faraway beach. That is, until the kids get bored.

We’ve enlisted the help of one of our favourite Insta families, @chasingthesummerfields, to stretch eggs and bunnies as far as the long weekend can take us! Re-pack your bags with paint brushes, you're in for a furry ride…

Egg Decorating
Wooden eggs or hard-boiled eggs are perfect to dye and paint. Teach your kids about natural dyes with some of those veggies you’ve had sitting in your fridge for that little bit too long...

Best Bunny Dress-Ups
Get those creative juices flowing and prepare for a bit of a clean-up after this one *sorry. Parents remain on the couch and get your score cards ready (see, we made up for the mess).

Egg and Spoon Race
A classic! Put those decorated eggs to use.

An Easter Egg Hunt
Obvious, we know, but… have you thought to give them the task of finding 10 eggs but really only hide 9? Hello an extra half hour of Schitt’s Creek.

Easter Hat Parade
Parents you may have to get involved in this one, especially if you have an only child, but it's an activity that is guaranteed to shave hours off the day.

Who can nap the longest?
More of a year-round activity really. Make it Easter-themed by reading them a story about a rabbit, it’s a stretch but we’re sticking to it!
