I bought a long roll of white paper and some paper and my son body painted it, we added doodles and now have some bright wrapping paper.
competition – Baking cakes and biscuits
Our local farm shop has a free “hatching Event” on so we’re off there.
Make some yummy Easter Cupcakes
Painting egg competitions, let your imagination go wild, my daughter made a fantastic spider out of an egg
Fun in the park 🙂
Museums are amazing and usually free (just check before you go). Manchester has some great museums including the Museum of Science and Industry, the Manchester Museum, the Imperial War Museum, the People’s History Museum, Urbis, National Football Museum – to name but a few…
Decorate rich tea biscuits using coloured icing, sprinkles, angelica, pieces of fruit, the list is endless – let the children use their imaginations
Do lots of painting and drawing, kids like to be messy and creative
We use our imagination, Indoor picnics in cold weather. building tents with our bed sheets. We also do lots of home made cooking.
We love to go to the park and feed the ducks, then go and play on the swings
picnic’s and looking for bears in the woods
Geocaching is great fun and it’s free!
go to the local zoo…it can be a whole day trip and you can take a packed lunch to keep the price down, most of them do deals in the holidays and our local one has a castle as well so we get history thrown in…
lots of painting 🙂 xxx
Making pictures. Cooking.
We have been making chocolate easter nest cakes, making easter bonnets. easter egg hunt in the garden and bike rides in the park.
My youngest loves craft, last week we drew some our own Easter pictures, stuck them on to some card and then cut them up to make our own puzzles 🙂
decorating eggs and also easter egg hunt x
We’ve made good use of the beaches here at home in Pembrokeshire!! Beautiful, and totally free!!
Have a cuddle and be prepared to make a fool of yourself and have a laugh. My daughter and I recorded a ‘happy birthday’ song to her friend together and in my daughters words ‘it was pretty cool’.
An introduction to baking cakes and savoury treats is a great way to pass the time.
If its raining we get the board games or jigsaws out – better for the brain thna computer games and the whole family can be involved.
We have DVD days where everyone chooses a DVD , go to the pound shop and get popcorn chocolate,crisp and lots of juice .Draw the curtain put on the fairy lights and we are in our own cinema.Lot cheaper than taking four kids to the cinema
I’m intending going cycling with my nephew down to the local Country Park – will be a laugh as I haven’t cycled for years and he is also going to have to show me the way on the cycle path – I’ve always driven to the park up until now :).
Making gingerbread shapes and decorating them with lots of messy icing!
My daughter loves anything that involves gluing and a pritt stick/PVA; she loves spending time cutting and gluing; a stock of coloured card, glitter and a pair of round ended safety scissors and her creations brighten up my home.
We love geocaching brings the kids together working as a team
Nature walks, take a lovely picnic too
We visit the museums, they’re free and there’s lots to do to keep the kids entertained, they often have specific kids things on during holiday as well.
