We’ve stuck to using simple materials that you would likely have at home already or just improvise where needed…
Why not do some Easter Art, even better make it into an Easter card! Receiving something through the post at the moment is extra egg-citing. Why not make some Easter cards for your friends and family, both fun to make and lovely to receive.
We should have plenty of these at home right now, so the perfect base for some Easter crafts.
Is this bringing back bad memories from your school days?! The kids will love decorating the egg first (hard boiled) and then having a few races (until the eggs are too smashed to carry on!). The running will burn off a few chocolate calories!
We are spending most if not all of our time in our homes right now so let’s get them decorated and feeling Eastery! (is that a word?!)
I’ve “bulked out” our Easter Egg hunts with extra bits the last couple of years, it makes it last longer for the kids, makes it more egg-citing and makes it about more than just the chocolate.
The good, old fashioned, fun for all game!
Some simple extra craft activity ideas….
This works best with ribbon, but works fine with strips of paper/card or even wool. Happy Weaving!
We love our tuff tray! Contained messy play. Obviously the pretty pictures soon get destroyed once the kids get set loose but it’s all fun.
Why not have a game of Easter bingo? There’s plenty of free templates available online so it’s just a matter of printing some off and deciding who’s going to be the bingo caller!
Why not make it an extra special cinema experience with the lights off, some popcorn/sweets/Easter Eggs and all snuggle up as a family.
Film ideas: Hop, Rise of the Guardians or Peter Rabbit
If you still have room after all the chocolate, then why not squeeze a bit of Easter baking in.
The BBC WEBSITE has loads of easy Easter baking ideas, from the good old Easter nest cakes, to Easter Egg blondies and Easter garibaldi biscuits. Yummy!
There’s plenty more on the Mumbler website too, HERE is the link to our Easter colouring in pages.
We’d LOVE to see your Easter crafts! Do share with us on Facebook in the Norwich Mumbler Chat Group and inspire others to get crafting too.
N.B Whilst we’d have loved to have made all of these crafts ourselves, we haven’t had the chance to yet!!! Therefore all the photos used are taken from Pinterest and not owned by Mumbler.
