Easter fun for all the family
Easter is almost here and we want to know what you’re getting up to. Hopefully you’ve got lots of lovely things planned in the run up to the school holidays – zoo trips, short breaks, lots of chocolate? If not, we’ve just the half-term solutions you need to make this Easter fun.
We’ve some great ideas if you’re looking for inspiration. Get egg-cited.
Bake-Off
This is a classic Easter treat that isn’t hard on the bank balance and has delicious results. Get the kids in the kitchen baking for all the family! From cute cupcakes to hot cross buns, swap your Easter bonnet for a chef’s hat and get creative. There are lots of cheap, easy to follow recipes– it’s just a case of picking the best bake for you.
A favourite of ours are cornflake cakes topped with mini-eggs. They’re quick and simple to make, and anything involving melted chocolate is bound to be super-tasty! Let us know your cooking stories this Easter. Our 4 Piece Baking Set by Prestige will help you to get started.
Film Night
If you want to spoil the kids without it costing a fortune, plan a film night. Staying in is the new going out. So grab your duvet, snuggle up on the sofa and stick on a DVD. It’s a great way to relax, unwind and keep the little ones happy. Stock up on your favourite sweet treats and snack, chat and laugh to your favourite movie.
Seen Despicable Me 2 yet? We love it!
Egg Hunt
Celebrate Easter with a good old egg hunt. If you’re a stickler for tradition it’s a fun way to use your imagination. Make maps, leave cryptic clues and personalise your Easter eggs. There are organised egg hunts across the UK, but self-made trails suggest a personal touch. It takes time and effort, but the little ones will appreciate it.
Day Trips
School holidays are about doing something a little different; a break from your conventional weekend. So pack a lunch, grab your coat and head outdoors. This could be a trip to the park, the zoo, a show – the choice is yours!
Ensure they’re dressed for all weathers in waterproofs. Come rain or shine, don’t let anything spoil your day. This stylish Limerick Outdoor Jacket by Jack Wolfskin is perfect – practical and fashionable kids wear all in one.
