This Easter, you can take the opportunity to spend time with your loved ones and grandkids by organizing some themed activities. Instead of doing the usual Easter activities, make the holiday a special one this year by coming up with new activities to spark the children’s curiosity and excite their sense of adventure. Read on to learn more about the fun things to do with your grandkids this Easter!
Dye And Decorate Easter Eggs
One of the best Easter traditions is to dye Easter eggs. You will find that there are many kits available for creating all kinds of colorful eggs. You can use the traditional kits or explore other options for egg decorating.
Decorate Easter Baskets
Easter baskets are a lovely gift idea for anyone. Buying a gorgeous gift basket for your grandkids is a great idea but you can also turn this into a fun activity. Get your grandkids involved by gifting them a basket with craft supplies to decorate it. Or, fill the basket with various arts and craft projects to complete together.
Host An Easter Egg Hunt
Easter egg hunts are a wonderful Easter tradition to keep up. There is a secret to doing them well though. Every year, the hunt has to “level up” with the children. The search for eggs has to match their level of development so they feel challenged and it will keep their interest.
Cook or Bake Easter Treats
Many families host Easter meals every year. If you are hosting this year and want to spend quality time with your kids and grandkids, get them to help you with the cooking and baking. This can be fun for kids of all ages, even young children can help out in the kitchen. You can focus on easier recipes like quick dips and sugar cookies while working with the grandchildren. Remember to give them a taste of the food as a reward for their hard work.
Organize Games
In many parts of the United States, the Easter weekend is one of the first few times when it becomes warm enough to go outside. You can encourage your grandkids to take advantage of this spring weather by organizing a whole afternoon of fun outdoor games. For the older children, a game of soccer or road hockey might be fun for them. Younger kids will prefer games with more structure and guidance such as egg bowling, pin the tail on the bunny, Easter-themed charades, and see what activities they enjoy doing.
