Easter Party 2018*
Wow, can you believe Easter is over already? I know it was super early this year but it’s still a big mile stone point to pass. It’s also apparently Spring but I’m not sure where that’s at given we had snow the other day and today is thick mist and rain. Thankfully Easter Sunday was a beautiful spring like day and we managed to have our annual Easter party. Our family are notorious for throwing parties, Halloween parties, birthday parties and our Easter party, which is my personal favourite as we get to eat brunch and the sun is usually shining. It was my mum’s turn to organise it so…

5 Things to Include in an Easter Basket for Kids*
It’s 5 weeks on Friday until Good Friday, who can believe that Easter is coming around so soon? I’m not usually one for rushing the year away but I know once Easter is out the way we’ll be heading straight for our holiday to Walt Disney World. Of course that doesn’t mean I’m off the hook when it comes to all the events that are in between. Easter is the biggest but I also have my Dad’s birthday, my birthday and Mother’s Day. I’m all sorted for Mother’s Day and I’ll have a post up about it in the next week or so, but Easter, I’m only just getting started…

What We Did for Easter 2017
I can’t believe that’s Easter over with, the next time a term ends LM will have finished her first year at school! The Easter holidays seemed to last forever, probably because we managed to cram so much into two weeks, including LM having the dreaded chicken pox for 7 of those days (technically 9 as she had two days without spots). Now she’s been back a day the holidays feel like they never happened. Crazy huh? Of course I’m already looking forward to May half term as we have two days in London with a friend from Shanghai and we have two days in Disneyland Paris! It’s definitely all that…

Our Easter 2017 Plans
Today the Easter holidays start at Little Miss school! I can’t believe it’s been a whole term since LM went back after Christmas and now she only has one term left of her first year at school, that’s scary. But before I think about that, I have her at home for two whole weeks and we have so much planned! I’m sure because we do have so much planned it’s going to fly by but at least I know we’ll have lots of fun, fingers crossed we get some good weather for it. Anyway today, before I head along to LM’s end of term assembly, I thought i’d share some…

The Tale of the Little Easter Bunny
This week my nephew decided to take it upon himself to make Easter a person, much like Santa Claus. Both he and Little Miss have been telling everyone that “Easter is coming with eggs” so I decided to take it upon myself to make Easter into a person for Little Miss. I’m not religious but due to having a Catholic upbringing I do observe the holidays. Our household is very much an agnostic apathetic area and I do intend to bring my daughter up that way. Christmas is about family and Easter is.. about chocolate of course! At Christmas, Santa Claus is the bringer of goodies, at Easter it’s… you…

Easter Crafting for Kids with Hobbycraft
Easter Craft Pack c/o Hobby Craft Felt Bunny Baskets c/o Hobby Craft Little Miss insisted we donate the blue one to her cousin. Not because blue is for boys, but because pink is her favourite colour. As I mentioned in my blog post about activities to keep your children busy over Easter, crafting was one of my suggestions. This was based on the fact I had this Easter activity kit hidden away to do on some rainy afternoon, and that rainy afternoon ended up being today. Hobbycraft kindly sent me some bits and pieces from their Easter range, these along with some stuff I’d also picked up from…
