Easter isn't just about baskets and bunnies—it's a celebration of spring, new beginnings, and spending quality time with family. As the flowers bloom and the days grow warmer, it's the perfect opportunity to embrace the season with your little ones.
Fun Springtime Activities

Egg Decorating with a Twist – Instead of traditional dye, try painting eggs with washable paints, using stickers, or decorating wooden eggs for a mess-free keepsake. Here are some ideas:
Go on a Springtime Scavenger Hunt – Create a simple list of spring-themed items (a bird's nest, a blooming flower, a butterfly) and take a walk through your neighborhood or a local park to find them together!
It's always important to include literature with your activities, and here are some of my favorites:
- Happy Easter Mouse
- Here Comes the Easter Cat
- The Great Big Easter Egg Hunt (Peter Rabbit)
- Easter Egg Countdown (Pat the Bunny) (board book)
It is a wonderful time to enjoy fresh air, bright colors, and family fun. Whether you're exploring the outdoors or sharing a meal together, embrace the joy of the season and make some happy memories!
