With Easter quickly approaching, so too do the bank holidays in place to celebrate the occasion. For parents, while it means time with your little ones, it also means finding some activities to fill the hours to stave off mischief and mayhem! Easter is a time for families to make memories by hunting Easter eggs, decorating bonnets and eggs, and creating lifelong traditions.
As we constantly say, making memories and spending time with family doesn’t need to cost a fortune, so we have compiled some egg-xtra fun Easter activities to keep your little bunnies busy over the Easter holidays (and burn off some of that sugar energy hopefully!) that won’t cost you a fortune! More money for Easter chocolate, right?
From LEGO sets to entertain older family members to Easter egg hunt kits, there is something for every bunny and every budget!
Easter egg hunts are a staple activity each year for a reason. No matter the age of your audience, you can guarantee your family will have a great time scrambling around your home and garden trying to find well-hidden Easter treats! One of the great things about this activity is that it’s versatile and can be adapted to suit different age groups. For instance, you can create riddles and puzzles for older children to solve, while younger kids could benefit from colourful wooden markers to guide them on their hunt.
This Easter Egg Hunt Kit is perfect for scavenging for Easter eggs with the family. It includes everything you’ll need to make the task super fun and engaging for your little ones, including wooden markers, sticker sheets, treat bags, and even draw-your-own maps! And for only £2.39, you can’t say no to those cute Easter animals featured!
These refillable Easter eggs are great for Easter egg hunts or even just as a fun way to gift chocolate treats (it comes with a set of labels that would be perfect gift tags)! This set from George contains 40 fillable eggs, perfect for whatever activities you have planned over the holiday. For only £5, these plastic eggs can be reused for many Easters to come.
Trying to find a way to personalise your scavenge hunt? These Colour in Wooden Easter Baskets from The Range are a great way to engage younger bunnies, letting them decorate their own basket ready to fill with their found treasures! The basket includes everything little hands will need to decorate it, such as stickers and paints in pretty springtime colours. For £3.49, this wooden basket is something you can keep and treasure!
These Easter crafts are great for keeping your little ones busy this Easter while you hide their treats around the house (or eat some chocolates you don’t want to share, there’s no shaming here!). From activity books for quick activities or crafts you’ll bring out years in advance, we’ve pulled together a few of our favourite crafts you need this Easter!
This Activity and Sticker Book is a great way to keep your little chicks entertained this Easter. With more than 24 pages of colouring, activities, and puzzles, they’ll be busy for hours bringing their favourite Easter animals to life; there are even over 100 themed stickers you’ll find around your house weeks after! Pick up this book at Card Factory for £2.49.
This craft makes the perfect keepsake you can use to celebrate for years in the future. The Sun Catcher Kit includes 10 different shapes in an assortment of super sweet Easter designs. For £2.50, the set also comes with eight paint pots, a brush and hanging cord, so you can display your little artist’s work! These would be perfect for Easter parties or even just an afternoon of crafts at home.
Trying to find the perfect Easter decor for your home? Why not get your kids to make something special that will look adorable in your home? This Make Your Own Macrame Rabbit is a great way to get your kids in the creative spirit this Easter and includes all you will need to make your own floral bunny!

We’ll be grabbing one of these, for sure!
Finding that crafts aren’t the way to entertain your older chicks? These activities are perfect for bunnies who are a bit older, if you can pry their phones or game console remotes from their hands! They would even make great activities to get adults in the Easter mood, too!
Sick of buying supermarket daffodils and them dying straight away? These LEGO Creator Daffodils are the perfect way to build Easter flowers that will last forever! These are super on-trend at the moment, and for good reason. These faux flowers can be showcased individually or merged with other LEGO flowers to create a bouquet you’ll treasure always! We suggest you pick these up quick from George, they are only £10!
Fill their Easter baskets with LEGO fun this Easter with this LEGO Creator 3in1 White Rabbit!

All you need for this long-eared friend is some patience and LEGO bricks, no food or water is needed for this little guy! Give him a home for £13.
Bring a little sparkle to your home with this Make Your Own Crystal Easter Wreath. This set includes everything you need to create a one-of-a-kind piece of art that you’ll want to display year after year!
