Here are some fun activities to try during the Easter Break.

Go on an Easter scavenger hunt
Here are some items you could find on your Easter adventure. Children can write or draw a tick list to take with them, or you can screenshot this list to check while you are hunting. You can add your own ideas too. Can you find…

something shaped like an egg
something soft like rabbit fur
yellow flowers
fresh green leaves
pretty blossom
sweet birdsong
a rabbit hopping about
a lamb frolicking in a field
an old nest high up in a tree

Look for egg shapes in nature
Here’s another twist on the traditional Easter egg hunt – challenge youngsters to find egg shapes in nature. Can they spot oval leaves, petals and pebbles? Look up at the clouds in the sky and down at puddles on the ground. Old trees might even spot an egg-shaped hole or two in their trunks. How many different egg shapes can you spot?

Easter egg leaves 
This is a really simple yet effective craft that will see your little ones turning leaves into pretty Easter eggs! Simply gather together a selection of egg-shaped leaves and then it’s time to decorate them! You can use whatever materials you can find to decorate them in a range of fun Easter patterns. Paint pens work really well for this, and painting on the leaves is a great way to teach kids about different textures. Once done, you can display your Easter egg leaves around the house, or string them all together to create some Easter bunting.

Bird Watching: We have been following this robin family every day at school. Keep an eye on their progress here:
