The Easter holidays are finally upon us..yay!! A break from school runs and homework and more time for play, crafts and chocolate!! I thought it might be useful to share some Easter craft and play ideas to keep our little ones busy over the next while as we continue to stay home as much as possible.

Spring play ideas

We’ve finally made it to Spring! I’ve never been happier to leave the Winter months behind. It’s been a long haul with lockdown and miserable weather. The days are so much brighter and signs of Spring are popping up everywhere with gorgeous daffodils and tulips and birdsong. I love Spring-themed activities and thought a blog sharing some of our Spring play might be useful😀.

Make a Bird Feeder
Over the Christmas Break I saw quite a few ideas of ways to make bird feeders at home. Thought it would be fun to do with the kids and thought I would share here. Having bird feed availiable will hopefully attract more birds to your garden and hopefully you will see more birds for the RSPB big bird watch.

Learning through playdough
In this house, playdough is the one activity I can guarantee will give me five minutes of peace. All three kids can be brought back from the brink of meltdown with the aid of this wonderstuff - I don’t know whether it’s the sensory nature of it or just the repetitive action of kneading and rolling, but it works! The fact that it’s a creative activity, screen-free time, and easy clean-up is all just gravy!

Christmas Crafts
Recently I have been looking at designs when making Christmas Cards with the kids. I've decided I need to be more organised this year so have started looking already for ideas. I thought I'd share with you what I have found, along with our designs from last year.
