Keeping children entertained during the Easter break isn’t always an easy task.
Recreational events and centres are usually packed to the brim – not to mention charging higher prices than normal due to increased demand.
But the good news is that there are plenty of engaging activities you can treat your children to, away from the maddening crowds and inflated entry fees. Here are some creative ideas to help pass the time together enjoyably.
1. Plan an Easter bike ride
Provided the weather is on your side, what better way to spend time with your kids than embarking on a bike riding adventure?
Whether you choose to explore your local park or venture further afield, there’s nothing like the great outdoors.

2. Grow your own mini garden
Growing a mini garden is a fun and educational activity to do with your kids this Easter. Gather some garden pots, dig out your trowel and make this mini garden a focal point of your outdoor area.
Charles and Ivy’s large planters are both practical and aesthetic, adding a touch of beauty and greenery to any space.
Your kids will love getting stuck in as they fill their pot with soil and their chosen seeds.
This activity keeps on giving, too as they can watch their handiwork come to fruition over the holidays. They’ll end their Easter break with a sense of accomplishment at having created something truly unique.

3. Host a pizza party
What better way to spend your Easter break than hosting a barbeque party and cramming down some pizzas with friends and family?
Making pizzas from scratch is such a fun activity for all the family, from kneading the dough to choosing the toppings – there’s something for everyone to do. Cooking outdoors is also a great way to soak up the spring sun (and show off your culinary skills).
Our retailer, The Pizza Oven Shop, sells quality pizza ovens for budget prices.
The Ooni Koda 12 pizza oven can even cook a 12” pizza in 60 seconds – perfect for hungry children!

4. Throw a silent disco
Why not try something new this Easter and take part in a silent disco?
This unique party idea lets the kids listen to their favourite music as loud as they want – without disturbing the neighbours. Wireless headphones act as speakers, with each guest having their own pair, making it a fun and original idea for guests (or kids) to enjoy some upbeat tunes with friends.
