How Do You Make Easter Fun For Kids?

Easter is fast approaching. So what better way to have your little bunnies hop, skip and jump their way into the chocolate-filled festivities, than with a selection of egg-citing Easter games and activities? Join Jaques of London, as we twitch our noses and ask, How do you make Easter fun for kids?

 

 

The Best Easter Games and Activities for Kids

 

Easter Egg Hunt

With the promise of a tasty reward, nothing will excite your kids quite like an eagle-eyed Easter egg hunt. Whether indoors or out, there is sure to be plenty of exciting competition to have hungry hunters bouncing for joy. Just be sure to save yourself a treat. After all the tiresome hiding, you surely deserve it.

 

Egg Craft

What would Easter activities for kids be without the tradition of egg decorating? Now is the perfect time to unleash your bunny brushes and eggy artistry. Simply hard-boil your eggs and wait for them to cool. Now comes the fun! Grab your glue, pick your paints and collect your crafts, as the whole family prepare to create an egg of epic proportions.

 

Egg & Spoon Race Revelry

With plenty of additional calories to burn, there is no better time to get everyone out of their seats for a seasonal challenge. Create your own wiggly warren assault course, before blowing the whistle to declare your rabbit race underway. With your newly decorated egg balanced precariously atop your spoon, it is up to you to pass the finish line first and be declared the egg-static winner.

 

An Easter Egg-ducation

Easter games and activities for kids are egg-cellent fun. But let's also take the time to add a chick class session to the season. Little learners are always fascinated by the joys of Spring. From hatchlings to new-born bunnies, there is no end to the promise that Easter holds. So, why not venture out to the nearest petting zoo and introduce your kids to the many adorable new animals that will be waiting to meet them.

 

Easter Games

We know we can't always rely on the weather. Fortunately, Easter is the perfect time to get the family together for a day of board game battles. For Jaques personal favourites, check out our blog on The Best Games for Family Games Night. There's no better way to have everyone cracking up this Easter season.

 

Hopping Hilarity

Put an Easter activity twist on the classic game of 'It', with the bouncing brilliance of bunny tag. One child plays the chasing dog, whilst the rest of the pack don their rabbit ears and hop away in retreat. The last caught is rewarded by being declared doggy for the next round. Of course, the best bunnies need the best disguises...

  

We are all ears when it comes to the very best in springtime adventure. So, the next time you wonder how do you make Easter fun for kids, look no further than Jaques of London, your number one Easter bunny buddy.
