I love celebrating Easter, and I’ve been browsing the Internet for ideas. So, if you are looking for eggs or something a little different then hopefully I can help.
Celebrating Easter with Chocolate Eggs
You can’t have an Easter post without chocolate eggs so here are my picks.
The Entertainer have some fabulous personalised egg boxes containing six chocolate eggs. What I love about these is that they are available in some fabulous designs that the kids will love, like Jo Jo Siwa, Paw Patrol, Unicorns, Manchester City and West Ham United. Perfect if you are looking for something a little different.
For more traditional eggs then pop on over to Cadbury’s Gift Shop. Be quick and you can get 15% off your order by adding the code RABBIT at the checkout. (limited time offer.)
Thorntons are offering some great offers on a daily basis. Currently you can get two large eggs for £15
or you can buy 2 smaller eggs for just £5, and some you can even personalise.
Chocolate and Sweet Gifts
These gifts are still for those with a sweet tooth but are not the traditional eggs.
Prezzy Box is a site full of the more unusual but lovely gifts. Do you know someone who loves Ferrero Rocher? How about getting them a personalised sweet tree.
If Ferrero Rochers is not your thing, they also do Malteser Trees, Lindor Trees and even Liquorice Allsorts Trees! Plenty of choice.
Girly Gifts
You can’t beat Claire’s for some quirky gifts that girls will love. Their Easter collection features bunnies and chicks and prices range from £3.50 and go up to £15. Currently Claire’s are offering buy one get one free on almost everything!!
cute bunny notebook £6
Boy Gifts
Probably not very Easter like but you can always get the boys a box of Lego. At Geek Box they are currently giving away a lego gift with every £20 purchase of Lego.
A Tea Lovers Easter
know someone avoiding the chocolate and trying to improve their health who loves tea? (Just like me!)
How about this lovely Happy Healthy Easter Bag from Twinings.
Book Lover’s Easter
How about a book treat? There are lots of books for kids all about Easter and I’m sure the little ones would love this Peppa’s Easter Egg Hunt.
Or for the adults you could just browse the Books of the Month for March.
Flowers
Why not brighten up someone’s Easter with a gorgeous bunch of spring flowers. At Prestige Flowers they have a beautiful selection to choose from and lots of other Easter gifts starting from just £9.99
Easter Crafts
Finally, how about making your own Easter gifts and decorations? At Hobby Craft there are loads of ideas for adults and kids. You can get everything you need to help your kids make their Easter Bonnets, Easter Cards or decorate their eggs. You can also find a load of Easter baking goodies for making cakes or even having a go at making your own chocolate eggs or treats. (One of our favourites is Easter Bark, pretty simple and lots of fun.) Or if you fancy a bit of crafting yourself, how about making a gorgeous Easter Wreath?
The Marvellous Mrs P has a fabulous post on Easter Stuff to Do here.
Easter Egg Hunts
You can make your own Easter Egg Hunt at home, we often do, but at Easter Cadbury’s team up with the National Trust for some special Easter Egg Hunts. There are over 250 venues to choose from at National Trust properties. We will be going this year but you can read all about our adventures last Easter at Packwood House.
I hope my post has given you some ideas for celebrating Easter. Whatever you do, I hope you have a lovely holiday. Easter is my favourite time of year, the weather is warming, the kids have two weeks off school and there is chocolate involved. What’s not to like. 🙂
Hi Anne, for me there is one clear winner in the Easter egg department and that’s a Cadbury’s button egg. What is it about Easter egg chocolate that makes it sooo nice? Is it the thinness of it?.. Dare I say it, but I’m not a fan of Thorntons chocolate, I find it a little too rich…. The Easter flowers look so pretty, paired with a buttons egg and I’d be over the moon… We still do an Easter egg hunt at home (the neighbours think we’re barmy – it’s not a Greek thing), but a wander around a National Trust property in the search for eggs sounds like the opportunity for some fun family time.
