Easter is, undeniably, one of the best holidays of the year. Announcing the return of spring, life, and renewal, it’s a celebration filled with joy and hope. Be it for religion, tradition, or cultural, there are many ways to celebrate Easter. With Handy, we will look into kids’ activities to make their Easter about more than the chocolate bunnies. Easter is a time for family, growth, and love.
Celebrating spring with the little ones.
So much happens in Spring. The sun is shining Tender greens are popping up on the grass and bushes. Flowers start to peek out of their frozen beds. Birds are returning, chirping with glee. No other season buzzes with so much activity. This is the perfect season to show your child the wonders of nature, and with Easter right around the corner, getting things ready for an Easter celebration is the perfect excuse to do some arts and crafts with the little ones.
- Golden Egg Easter Hunt – What better way to create hype during Easter is with the classic egg hunt. To make it more creative, as well as more exciting for your kids, have them write something they like about their siblings on a golden piece of paper, and decorate a special plastic egg for their sibling. Once the hunt is on, they will be able to find their own egg, decorated by their siblings, with a feel-good message inside. A great way to foster good relations between them.
- Plastic Egg Planter – They are everywhere this time of year. Those plastic colorful eggs. What can you do with them once Easter is over? Decorating and using them to create cute decorations and get your little ones involved with plants. Using a little pot soil and some easy to grow seeds, you will be able to teach your kids how to care for living things, without risking the demise of a beloved pet. Microgreen, such as leafy salads, herbs, such as basil, green onions, are a great start.
- Recycling Chocolate Containers – Most chocolate containers have shredded paper hay to give the animal chocolaty goodness a barnyard feel. Using that shredded paper to insulate a newly potted plant is a great way to teach your kids about recycling. A lot of spring vegetable still need protection against frost, and covering the soil with hay, dead leaves, or moss is the ideal way to keep your spring vegetables healthy. It will keep the soil humid, and as it decomposes, will feed your plant nutrients to help it grow.

Giving them pause to think of what they enjoy about each other’s tightens their bonds, making them appreciate each other. Taking a moment to teach, create, and tend to live things is a valuable lesson for kids of all age.
