Easter is a time of new beginnings, hope returning after a long winter and for many, a reminder of love and faith.
Whether you're waking up early to see sunrise, dyeing eggs with kids, or just treating yourself to a solo brunch and a good book or good music. “Easter invites all of us to pause, reflect on life, growth and renewal, the joy of finding a hidden egg, the laughter around the dinner table or the quiet spring morning walk”.
Easter has this magical way of sneaking up on us. One moment we’re packing up winter scarves and the next, we’re surrounded by pastel everything, fluffy bunny ears and the smell of hot cross buns in the air. Yes not to forget the chocolates.
Ideas for a fun filled Easter celebration (Family):
Interactive Easter walk:
Design a walking path with illustrated story stations narrating the Easter story or themed tales. This integrates movement with education and engagement for children.
