Ways to Celebrate Easter 2024 in Bucks (and Nearby)

This year, Easter falls on March 31, so it’s definitely on the earlier side of when Easter can occur. (Next year, it’ll be April 20!)

Bunny Picnic in the Park

There was a lot about Easter 2020 that was sad and weird. BUT, on one beautiful day leading up to the holiday, I decided to get the kids dressed up, grab a bunch of bunny stuffed animals, pack some food and head to the park. While it was a tradition that came out of desperation, it’s one that we happily repeated for a few years! They think it’s fun to eat picnic style, and I never usually let them bring stuffed animals to the park, so it feels special to them. And I’m able to get cute pictures, so it’s a win for all of us!

TIP: If the weather doesn’t cooperate, you could always do this idea at home in your family room! You could also do a bunny tea party. Or, turn it into a movie afternoon by gathering stuffies, making popcorn (bonus if you add Easter-colored M&Ms), and watching a movie like HOP.

Easter Chalkart

Spring is the perfect time for chalkart because it’s warm enough to play outside, but the driveway and sidewalk aren’t too hot to sit on it!

Tip: Draw some bunny ears for cute photo ops!

Easter Crafts

I love crafts, so I’m so happy that Henry and Charlotte like them too. We’re always coloring and drawing, but one of my favorite things to do is have them create paintings to decorate our walls or mantle. Value packs of 8 x 10 stretch canvases are perfect for this.

I’m looking forward to seeing how their paintings change as they get older, but for now, “reverse stencil” style painting are my go-to. I find a simple image online (or freehand it), print it out on thick paper, cut it out, and then tape it to the canvas. Then I have the kids pick the colors they want to use, put dollops on paper plates for each of them, and let them go at it. The only guidance I really give is making sure they go around the edges of the paper shape so that you’ll be able to tell what it is when we remove it. Henry was really proud of the eggs he painting around his bunny this time! After they finish painting, I remove the paper shape, and that’s it! Well, last year we also glued a cotton ball on the bunny’s butt for the finishing touch!

Whenever we paint (or do anything messy) I throw down a plastic tablecloth from a previous birthday party. It’s SO easy to just use a wipe on it when we’re finished and then just fold it back up and put it back in the drawer with our paints. I used to use newspaper but 1) We don’t get a newspaper anymore. and 2) This is easier!

Get smocks or aprons! Even though most of the supplies I buy are marked washable, I don’t like to take chances. You can buy apron-style smocks at Dollar Tree in a variety of colors. Or is you want even more protection, we like THESE with sleeves.

As for paint, the Crayola washable is our favorite. Especially the glitter ones!

Whenever I see new holiday-themed crafts go out at Dollar Tree, I make sure I snag a few that the kids would like. They tend to go quickly, so don’t wait! These are great for a rainy day!

Dying Easter Eggs

We’ve dyed eggs the traditional way, but my kids have also had fun decorating fake eggs, too! None of us like hard boiled eggs, and it means the kids can play with them and keep them for years to come. I got THIS PAAS Kit a few years ago from Target, but I’ve only seen it on Amazon so far this year. What’s cute about the PAAS Kit is that the eggs actually open, so it’s easier for small children to do different color on each half, and you can put little treats inside them. Plus, there were a few eggs that looked like chicks or bunnies, which Henry and Charlotte loved.

The plastic egg kit came with 3 dye tablets to use with vinegar and water like traditional egg dying kits. We used these for half of the eggs, and then we tried the shaving cream method with the rest. We filled a small baking dish (they each wanted their own) with shaving cream and a bit of food coloring (we used washable paint last time when we were using paper). Then swirled it around with a skewer. Then we placed the eggs in the shaving cream mixture and rolled them around, before putting them on paper towels. We waited about 5 minutes before wiping off the excess shaving cream so that the dye would have time to set. The kids loved the shaving cream because it was more hands-on then just dropping an egg in a cup. But next time, I’d control the colors in the shaving cream more. Charlotte got REALLY into mixing it up, so the colors got pretty muddled. But they had fun! And now we can save these eggs instead of just throwing them out in a few days.

Last year, I snagged a GREAT deal on those spinning egg decorators where the kids use markers to make designs while the egg spins. You can use fake or real eggs with this one. I was able to get THIS combo for about $20 with shipping and it included two of them. The price isn’t as low now, but it’ll still pretty good. If you just want one, HERE‘s a good one.
