We are sharing Easter Activities you can do from home… just Easter is going to be very different this year doesn’t mean that it won’t be just as great as years past. Many states are under “stay in place orders” throughout spring, which means families will not be gathering for dinners, churches will not be hosting services, and community Easter Egg hunts will not be taking place. We must prepare for Easter in our homes.
That’s ok – we’ve shared Easter Activities in the past, but today we have a list that is just for Easter activities that can be done from home!
Easter Activities at Home
Undoubtedly we will be tuning into our church service on Easter morning. We will still cook a ham, followed by a few days of leftovers. We will hide Easter eggs in our backyard for the kids to chase down, just like we do every Easter morning.
Some things will never change, but with everyone being home this year, it’s important to remember to bring joy into your home. Laughter & smiles on those little faces is a sure way to do it. 😉
I hope that you love these special Easter activities as much as we are enjoying them.
Easter Activities to do on Easter Morning!
I scoured Easter resources to bring you the very best stay-at-home Easter Ideas that I could find! I am not really a "Crafty" person, in general, but I do love fun activities and so do our kids. It's about the time spent together more than the activity itself.
These ideas are ones that you can execute with limited materials and energy.
While there is endless inspiration out there, I think these will make our Easter at home exceptional!
You can make a Jelly Bean Tree! If you don't have Jelly Beans, you can make pretend Jelly Beans with paper or tissue paper. This is always a favorite activity for our kids.
How adorable are these bunny bottles? Use any bottle to create little Easter bunnies!
Grab this printable Easter Egg Worksheet & have fun teaching your kids all about counting, colors & sorting!
Every year, our kids wake up to find that the Easter bunny has made tracks through our house. We learned exactly how he does it & we're sharing it here!
Take time to make some of these homemade Easter Gifts together.
These are adorable! Start baking & decorating these cute little Easter bunny bottom cookies!
What better to have an Easter Egg Hunt than to use the hunt to teach them the meaning of Easter Sunday? Each of the 12 eggs will have a specific meaning.
Here is a Fun Easter egg activity for kids that I think you will love!
How cute are these eggs? You don't need much to pull this off this little craft!
Let your little ones make this Easter Wreath with some tissue paper, construction paper & glue. Our kids loved this craft even as young toddlers. 🙂
These Bunny Boxes are so cute! I have used them for Teacher gifts in the past, but you can use them for decoration or for the kids to give to one another.
Grab some window chalk & create an inspirational drawing for the neighbors to see.
This is so much fun - a stained-glass chalk drawing right outside of your own front door. 🙂
Sugar cookies are easily turned into bunnies with this recipe! Get your kids involved & bake some Easter Treats!
Don't forget the mini carrot cakes! 😉
Salt dough lends itself to all sorts of shape making. Once baked to thoroughly dry, the dough is hard and can last for years. The dough is also paintable which makes it all the more fun.
Since many of us can't run to the store to buy Easter Egg Dying Kits right now, this is a fantastic solution! I have everything I need already in my pantry for this creative take on Easter Eggs. Bonus, my two year old will be able to jump right into the fun!
Plastic beads melted into beautiful suncatchers are hung on this indoor Easter Egg Tree!
"In Germany and Austria, it's customary to celebrate Easter by hanging hollow eggs from the branches of trees. This year, bring the tradition indoors by creating a unique display for your blown and decorated eggs"
Basically, I’m taking Easter and turning it into Christmas. What else can we put on a spring spin? The kids are going to love this project. And I can get all the supplies in a quick online grocery order. This might be a fun project to do a few days after Easter when you are ready to use up all that extra candy!
This craft needs very little supplies which is extra helpful right now. We already have store-bought pom makers to make this craft easy. If you don’t like her hand tying method you can always use this cardboard method for making poms.
If you have time for a quick Amazon purchase, grab some flameless tea lights, put them inside of your plastic egg & have an egg-hunt!
This has been on my list for several years, and we always get so busy. Now with the time I am sending the kids out to scavenge in nature for all the elements for their resurrection gardens. These are so beautiful and can make a great centerpiece for Easter dinner.
