Need ideas for Easter activities for kids? Wondering how to keep your kids entertained over the Easter weekend?
There’s plenty of fun Easter activities you can do at home, in the back yard or at your local park.
Check out these fun and easy Easter activities for kids ideas.
Egg Painting
This Easter craft is a classic activity that’s fun for kids and adults alike. All you need is a carton of eggs, and some paints – it’s that simple!
Paint patterns onto the shells to create your decorated Easter eggs. If you’ve got young children who are likely to crack the eggs, try boiling them beforehand. Just make sure they’ve cooled down before painting onto the eggshell.
These painted eggs make great Easter decorations or gifts for family members.
Easter Table Decorations
However you celebrate Easter, many of us will sit down for a meal with family or friends over the Easter weekend.
Get the kids to help out with some Easter table decorations. Use shredded paper or twigs to create nests, and fill with mini eggs, little chicks or painted eggs. Why not paint some eggs to look like the Easter bunny?
Easter Baking
We couldn’t celebrate Easter without sweet treats. A fun Easter activity for kids is baking Easter cakes.
There’s plenty of different kinds of cakes and cookies you can make with the kids this easter. Why not try a chocolate cake decorated with candy, or cupcakes decorated with bunnies and chicks?
Easter Egg Hunt
Another big part of Easter celebrations is the Easter egg hunt. This is a fun Easter activity to do with the whole family, but kids especially love to get involved.
Whether you’re hiding the eggs around the house or in the garden, take your Easter egg hunt to the next level with photo clues. Take a picture of the egg and a clue to its location and make photo prints. Give the clues to your kids and the Easter egg hunt will feel like an exciting treasure quest.
Egg and Spoon Race
The classic egg-related game, the egg and spoon race, is the perfect game to play with your kids this easter. All you need is some eggs and spoons.
Line everyone up at a start line, place the eggs on a spoon, and start the race. The aim is to finish the race first without dropping the egg off the spoon. Harder than it looks! This fun Easter game is perfect for playing outdoors in the back yard or park this Easter.
Try these Easter kids activities out this weekend and make the most of family time together. Keep the kids entertained and have fun while you do it. Don’t forget to take photos to remember those happy family moments this Easter.
