Easter baskets, chocolate bunnies, colored eggs, pretty dresses & fancy shoes were some of the things my girls looked forward to each Easter! When my girls were little we probably went to 3-5 egg hunts each year. I know…it’s a lot! The girls had a blast though! I would plan something holiday related to do each weekend leading up to Easter. We loved the New Canaan Nature Center’s egg hunt and the town of Rowayton, CT has a good one too but that was geared towards real little kids. The Young Women’s League of New Canaan puts on a fantastic celebration at Waveny Park with bounce houses, the Easter bunny, a huge egg hunt, a bake sale and face painting. We attended one event where a helicopter dropped thousands of eggs onto a field but it was sort of chaotic and not geared for little ones. I always kept my eye out for local fun events via marypoppins.com, the local paper, libraries and ctparent.com to name just a few!

Here are some pics from one of our previous Easter celebrations. Party City has always been my local go to, I also like Michaels, Palmers in Darien, Etsy and Ebay is my favorite for my daughter’s outfits! Do you have a favorite crafty way that you incorporate into your holiday? Drop a line or share a pic! I’d love to see it! Wishing you all an egg-citing day!!
