Easter
Easter activity ideas for kids.
Hunts are the heart of it, and they work for a much wider age range than you would think — hide in plain sight for a two-year-old, add clues for a seven-year-old, and both can play the same game.
Egg decorating scales the same way, from stickers on a hard-boiled egg to blown eggs painted properly. Both versions are here.
Plenty of it is not about chocolate at all: paper chicks, spring gardens in a saucer, cress heads and nests made of shredded paper.
