Easter is about more than just chocolate bunnies and Easter egg hunts – It’s a time for family and fun! And what better way to do that than with some egg-cellent activities that everyone can enjoy?
The Great Bunny Hop: Get those wiggles out with a classic Easter game of Bunny Hop! Decorate pillowcases with fluffy tails and floppy ears, then line up and hop like bunnies to the finish line. For extra giggles, add an egg-carrying challenge – who can hop the fastest without dropping their precious cargo?
Egg-cellent Relay Race: Divide into teams and pass decorated eggs down the line using spoons, spatulas, or even your feet! This fast-paced game will test your coordination and teamwork skills, and the sillier the relay tools, the more laughter there’ll be.
Pin the Chick on the Bunny: Take a spin on the classic party game with an Easter twist! Draw or cut out a giant bunny on some cardboard, and then make smaller chick shapes from construction paper or felt. Blindfold each player, spin them around a few times, and see who can get their chick closest to the bunny’s nest.
Rainbow Egg Marbling: Dye hard-boiled eggs with vibrant colors using shaving cream and food colouring. Swirl the colours together, gently roll the eggs in the mixture, and witness the transformation into beautiful, marbled masterpieces!
Get crafty with some fluffy chicks: Cut out chick shapes from yellow paper and glue on googly eyes and pipe cleaner beaks. Then, attach the chicks to popsicle sticks and let the kids put on a puppet show, singing and dancing to their favourite Easter tunes.
With these fun and engaging activities, your Easter celebration is sure to be a hopping success! We hope you have a wonderful Easter filled with love, laughter, and lots of creative learning!
