 | From Amanda Rock, your About Parenting Editor Are you ready for Easter next weekend? We are all very excited. One thing I've noticed about all the holidays is that they tend to get stretched out over time. Easter is next Sunday, but over the next week and a half we've been invited to multiple egg hunts, egg decorating parties, and spring brunches. Interested in getting in on the fun? The About.com Parenting Experts have a ton of fun ideas to try. | |
Host an Egg Coloring Party
The most obvious Easter egg activity is also one of the most fun. Christine takes you through everything you need to host an egg coloring party, from invitations to games, as well as figuring out the technical stuff -- how many eggs you'll need and how much dye to prepare.
| Kids' Easter Egg Games
If you've got a crowd coming for Easter (or in the days leading up to Easter), you'll definitely want to have some games on hand to keep everyone entertained. Luckily, the Easter egg itself lends itself to many fun activities. Try some of these fun ideas from Susan.
| Best Easter Picture Books
When it comes to younger children, you cannot assume that they will necessarily remember all the details of a holiday, even if they have celebrated it the year before. That's why I love to read my preschooler books about upcoming fun events, so he'll know what to expect when the time comes. Elizabeth has complied a great list of picture books for little one, perfect for explaining the holiday and building up joyful anticipation.
| Easter Traditions for Families
When my husband I were first married, we both brought with us holiday traditions that we shared with each other and incorporated as our own. As we had children, those traditions changed and grew to accommodate our family. Looking for fun Easter traditions for your brood? Try some of these thoughtful suggestions from Apryl.
