Creative And Fun Easter Sunday Ideas For The Kids
Ahead of this weekend’s Easter holiday, some people may be wondering what to do with the littlest of guests. Kids have such short attention spans, getting them dressed for Easter dinner or taking them to hear the good Sunday word may not suffice for the whole day. If you’re expecting a number of guests over, or just want to have some indoor fun with the kiddos, there are plenty of “do it yourself” family activities to set your Easter Sunday celebration off. The Easter egg hunt and Basket-Making are always great go-to games for the tots, but if you would like to keep it interesting, here’s a list of ten optional activities.
