Easter always keeps me on my toes… one year it’s in March and the next it may be well into April. It’s after second winter break, spring sports are just getting going and regardless of when it actually is, it always seems to sneak up on me.
What I love most about Easter is that, while it can suddenly jump up on you, it doesn’t back itself up against other big holidays so I find the stress around planning and prepping isn’t quite as intense as say, the winter holidays. Spring is also fresh in the air and the kids are always eager to be outside and tend to be in a “crafty” mood.
I promised myself last year that I’d start saving and sharing the activities I put together for my kids with other moms and families, so here I am: sharing!
Whether you have a full gourmet ham spread for 15 people planned or are keeping it simple this year, having a few small activities for the younger kids planned helps to keep them entertained and makes the day feel special.
I’ll continue to add to the library as I create additional activities for this coming Easter, but for now, feel free to grab these I made in preparation!
Simply click the link, download and print at home… for FREE!
Free “Easter Egg Tickets” Printable
These are my absolute favorite!
Each ticket is “good for” one spring activity to encourage spending more time together as a family.
You can use them instead of candy (or with) in your Easter Eggs for a fun-filled hunt or be imaginative and hand them out throughout the day or week prior when you catch the kiddos doing something caring. Maybe they’re a reward for learning a new Bible verse… options are endless!
The download includes two sheets of pre-determined rewards and an additional blank sheet that you can print as many times as you’d like to fill in your own ideas. Enjoy!
Free “Easter Activities Bingo” Printable
This one can be used on Easter Sunday or throughout the week or month prior. A fun game for individuals or the family to do together, Easter Activities Bingo gets you in the mood to celebrate!
Free “Easter I Spy Game” Printable
And how about a fun game of Easter I Spy? Sure to keep them entertained for a good 10-15 minutes while you (hopefully) relax.

I love having holiday-themed coloring pages readily available throughout the season, especially the week before when the littles are getting excited with anticipation. These coloring pages are for little kids, say ages 2-7.
Free “Easter Coloring Pages” Printable: Big Kids
