Fun is what brings smiles to our faces, especially the little ones. That is why we are composing a small list of fun ideas that you can do with your children for Easter!<\/p>\n<h3>The Time-tested Traditional<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s been around forever but painting Easter Eggs is an activity that has stood the test of time. Kits are commonly sold in the local grocery store and directions can be easily followed. We suggest setting up a small area outside to prevent the food coloring from hitting your floors during the process.<\/p>\n<p>To add a little pizzazz, you can even buy a small sticker pack and stick your designs on the Eggs. Children always get a kick out of these. Or you can even buy a small paintbrush and some paint and let their creative side shine. Be sure to compliment them on their designs!<\/p>\n<h3>A Different Approach to Easter Egg Hunts<\/h3>\n<p>Easter Egg hunts are undoubtedly fun \u2013 especially since most families typically use the same eggs that they decorated on their own. However, we want to spice things up.<\/p>\n<p>Glow in the dark.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s right! A glow in the dark Easter egg hunt to be performed outside during the night. Here\u2019s what you need: plastic eggs and glow sticks. All you do is break the glow stick, place it into the plastic egg <em>(you may need to tape it shut if it doesn\u2019t budge)<\/em> and that\u2019s it!<\/p>\n<h3>Fancy A Little Gardening?<\/h3>\n<p>Here\u2019s an idea we doubt you\u2019ve heard of: your child\u2019s own Easter garden. It\u2019s very simple, too. All you need are one type of candy, some lollipops of your choice, and a patch of dirt in your backyard. Jellybeans are perfect.<\/p>\n<p>Have your children plant some jellybeans in the backyard, have them water the patch, and then explain to them how overnight the jellybean will grow into something special. As they are sleeping, place the lollipop of your choice over their planted patches. When morning arrives, let them see the fruits <em>(or candy)<\/em> of their labor! They\u2019ll be shocked and excited at the same time. Works like a charm.<\/p>\n<p>We hope you enjoy our simple ideas \u2013 but most importantly, have a wonderful Easter with your friends and family. If you have an idea of your own, we\u2019d love to hear it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We love fun activities here at Urban Floor!
