Easter
I’ve began planning our annual Easter Egg painting sessions. I’ve researched a couple of ways I think I can get all kids involved, maybe even Danny who is 14 months old. Scroll down to find some inspiring ideas I have collected.
Two days after I excitedly posted on Facebook about our first Easter as a family of five, James had a fever. A very high fever that started early on Easter Sunday and lasted throughout the week. So our two-week break from reality and routine didn’t go as planned but we did have a few glorious moments.
I decided to take a few days off blogging and rest up with the family during the Easter holidays. Our past two Easters have been spent travelling so this year we wanted to be with our families and really ‘feel’ Easter.
We took a one-night trip to the mountains where papa’s parents have a house in one of the villages, visited friends and basked in the sun. We ate ridiculous amounts of delicious foods, consumed our weight in chocolate eggs, played tsougkrisma and of course my family’s favourite Easter egg game, an epic egg hunt.
Honestly I can’t remember the last time I dyed eggs for Easter. I think at some point it just became an incredibly mundane tradition- dip them in some red dye and that’s it. There was some spicing up later on when the colour green was introduced. Ha!
I promised myself I would get involved with decorating eggs this year with Georgie. But we’re doing it our way! So I gathered some kid-friendly cute and modern egg decorating ideas to try out.
