Simple, fun Easter activities can be planned ahead, and it does not need to be complicated. Here are some of the easiest yet exciting activities you can do with your family this Easter:

1. Easter Egg Charades

Playing charades is fun and exciting as it brings out the creativity in each of us. It allows us to think outside the box, builds a light-healthy competition, and is a sure ice breaker. For this game, you will need to put the prompts inside the colorful Easter eggs. Think of categories that will best suit your kid's age. For pre-schoolers, simple words like doughnuts, carrots, etc., are easier for them.

4. Treasure Egg Hunt

Depending on your preference, you can hide Easter eggs indoors or outdoors. You can create clues about the treasure and insert them in the plastic Easter eggs. Once all eggs are found, it will lead them straight to the treasure!
