Easter holiday activities

Keep children entertained during the school holidays with these egg-cellent Easter-inspired ideas

Egg and spoon race

l

Hard-boil some eggs (you can eat them afterwards), grab your spoons and go! Create a mini obstacle course for a bigger challenge – have kids crawl through tunnels or jump over cones.

Bake some cookies

l

Even the smallest children can help make a batch of our easy Easter egg cookies (find the recipe at bbcgoodfood.com).

Make your own egg cups

l

Cut a toilet roll into 5cm rings and stick onto cardboard bases. Let the kids cover the egg cups with papier-mâché before decorating, or simply paint them. The cups won’t last forever, but will add a special touch to Easter breakfast.
