Flowers, eggs, rabbits and little chicks are tradition in celebrating the renewal of life on Easter; commemorating the coming of Spring and the resurrection of Jesus. Prepare gift baskets for your kids to find in the morning when they wake up, at the end of the cotton ball trail, or shall we say bunny tail trail. Fill their baskets with chocolate rabbits and eggs, and marshmallow chicks.

If it’s a party you want to play, a party for the kids will be just as fun as if it were a party for the adults. Make sure to send out invitations. Decorate with bunny balloons, balloon sculpture carrots, pastel colored streamers, and lots of flowers. There are so many things you can plan to do to make a memorable event; hire a face painter, rent out a jumper or bounce house, maybe hire a Giant Bunny character to enhance the effect. Set up a scavenger hunt so the parents can be involved. Assign a parent to a group of two or three kids, and let them go house to house in search of items such as: an egg, a cotton ball, a carrot, etc. The first team to return with all the items will receive mini gift baskets, and maybe give the parent a bouquet of spring flowers.

What’s a party without some music for all these outdoor activities? What’s Easter without an Easter egg hunt? You and the parents can airbrush the eggs, and spread around the neighborhood for all the kids to find. Fill them with treats. Then, there is Easter dinner! If you are having a big dinner with lots of people, you may need to rent chairs or tables; also cover the tables with pastel or pattern tablecloths to stay thematic. Whether you are cooking or catering, ham, lamb or chicken is the traditional way to go. There are many options when it comes to celebrating Easter fun.
