A lot of the attention at Easter time is paid to the Easter egg hunt, but there are plenty of other Easter activities that are fun and festive. Scan through these ideas to get inspiration for ways to occupy kids at your Easter get-together or any other time during the month.

Easter Scavenger Hunt: For a new twist on the old egg hunt, try a scavenger hunt. Organize the kids into teams, and then write clues on small slips of paper. Each piece of paper will lead the kids to the next egg and the next. Start each team out with an egg in a conspicuous place. From there, you can make each egg hiding place more difficult. Make sure that each team has a child who can read, or an adult to help them out. The first team to get to the last egg wins a special prize.

Handprint Lambs: You can use this fun activity to track your child’s growth from year to year. Trace your child’s hand on black construction paper or foam. Glue cotton balls on the palm of the hand shape. The exposed thumb and fingers will be the lambs head and legs. Add a wiggly eye on the thumb and a small black triangle for an ear. You can turn the lamb into a magnet with some magnetic tape or use it as a wall decoration.

Paper Egg Decorating: Cut out large egg shapes, and then provide the kids with markers, paint and other art supplies. You can give out prizes for the most colorful egg, the most creative and the most original. Display them on the windows and around the house.

“Hot Egg”: This game is perfect before or after the Easter egg hunt. Take a plastic Easter egg, and arrange the children in a circle. Play some fast-paced music as the kids pass around the egg “hot potato” style. When the music stops, the player holding the egg is out. Continue doing rounds until there’s a winner.

Easter Fashion Show: Everyone gets dressed up nicely for Easter Sunday, so why not show it off? You can organize a fashion show for right after dinner. Line the kids up, and play some music. Have each of them walk forward and strike his or her best pose at the end of a paper runway.
