Wednesday – Easter Activities

• Crafts
  Crafts are such a great activity.  They make a good a crowd-pleaser (gives kids something to do).  They are a creative outlet for kids and adults alike.  And they make some terrific low-cost decorations for the holiday.  For inspiration, be sure to check out our Easter Board.
• Baskets
  Creating an Easter basket for a friend or family member is an Easter tradition.  Be on the lookout for fun things to go in the baskets.  Consider a theme and buy or make items that go with that theme.  (e.g. this beach-themed Easter basket)
• Egg Hunts
  Look at your church or community calendar for an egg hunt near you.  Or, gather a few plastic eggs and a few goodies to put in the eggs and host your own egg hunt.
• Easter Eggs
  Whether you enjoy dyeing eggs the traditional way or you are looking for some cool and unusual ways to decorate your eggs this Easter, find some time to do this traditional activity with the kids (ages 0 to 92) in your life.
