I have just ordered some molds to make our own easter eggs. Should be a good activity to fill in some of our kindy holiday free time (and cheaper too).
This is what we are doing:
Adults (we are entertaining 2 separate family functions and 1 group of friends) - gingerbread biscuit in egg shaped decorated with royal icing (presented in a cello bag with ribbon and gift tag).
Gluten free adults - home made chocolate eggs in cello bag and gift tag.
Children - muesli bar cut into egg shape in cello bag with gift tag
Baby - round teething ring - the closest thing I could find to oval shaped!
Have just had 15 minutes of entertainment looking up what elegant bunnies and Easter Humpty's are, and been educated about PJ's being traditional Easter presents - being from the UK these were new things to me. A question - is Easter a bigger thing here now than it was when you were young? or is it just bigger here than it was in the UK? I don't remember a big deal being made of Easter at all at home, we did get some chocolate mum and dad were big on value for money so we always got bars of chocolate rather than eggs as more for your money that way, but I don't remember ever being bought eggs by other people unless we were staying with relatives over Easter - or buying eggs for others, and I have never been on an Easter Egg hunt. So any other UK Expats, was it just my family or is Easter a bigger deal here in Aus?
So what have I got DD? Nothing had never occurred to me - well she got Giggle and Hoot PJ's a week ago, so maybe they count, and we are going to an Easter Egg hunt as on holiday.
Thanks WYSIWYG for reminding me about the pyjama thing, not something done in my family of origin but quite timely hear since the weather is getting colder and all the too-small winter clothes get pulled out around now.
