Easter Basket Turnover
Easter Game Ideas
I went on a Easter Egg Hunt - To play, the first player starts by mentioning an item and says, "I went on an Easter Egg Hunt and I found a CANDY BAG."  The next player then adds another item, and also repeats the first item said, "I went on an Easter Egg Hunt and I found a CANDY BAG and a BASKET."  Continue adding a new item each turn until a player forgets to mention a previously mentioned item in the proper sequence.  Continue until one player remains.

LDS Easter Ideas
Last week of the Savior's Life by Craig Alger
My husband and I decided to institute a Christ-centered Easter celebration. We created short activities to remind our children of sacred events that happened the last week of the Savior’s mortal ministry. Some of the activities were lighthearted, such as breaking a donkey-shaped piñata to celebrate Christ’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem. Others were more solemn, such as holding a candlelight dinner on Saturday evening in which we read the Book of Mormon account of the three days of darkness before Christ’s visit to the Americas.  As our children have grown older, we have modified our traditions to match their interests and attention spans. We look forward each year to our special, Christ-centered Easter week. (by Donna Cardon, Idea from April 1999 Ensign)

Party with Gram and Gramp - Some of the most memorable family activity is one that we call Grandkids Parties with Gram & Gramp.  On each holiday, each family, my family has 5 siblings so we each take an activity or a food assignment to help my parents out.  My parents have 16 grandkids and they vary in age from 12 to one years old.  We have activities for the older kids and then some activities for the younger children.  We have a craft that goes along with the holiday theme like Twinkies that are made into a bunny face. (The twinkies are actually the two ears and then a pink snowball from Hostess is the bunnies round face.  Then decorate with jellybeans for eyes and string licorice for whiskers.  They are adorable and each child loves them.  We have a game and snacks that go along with the holiday we are celebrating. (cupcake walk, plinko, fish pond, or relay races)  My two girls especially love the holiday parties with their gram & gramp! (Idea by Jana Williams / 091502006)
