Easter Ideas For Kids

Want to keep going with the Easter fun? We’ve got more great ideas that will keep your kids busy and learning!

When you read to your child, it’s not only fun and engaging but also beneficial for their development. Reading aloud can help kids improve their vocabulary skills as they get exposed to new things that are happening in books. For those reasons and more, we like to start each new theme with books.

There are so many great Easter books for kids, but these are some of our favorites. Grab them from the library or buy them to add to your child’s collection! They’re great for helping your child develop a larger vocabulary, focus, and more!

Happy Easter Mouse – Everyone knows Mouse from the classic If You Give A Mouse A Cookie book, but now he’s back and ready to celebrate Easter! Kids will love watching him as he goes on an Easter egg hunt!

Pete the Cat: Big Easter Adventure – Join Pete as he races to help the Easter bunny just in time for Easter! This is another new classic kids rate as a must-have!

It’s Not Easy Being A Bunny – Follow PJ the bunny as he tries to discover what kind of animal he’d rather be instead of a bunny! It’s a silly story with a great lesson.
