Easter Egg Decorating Party. No Easter celebration is complete without you know what—eggs by the dozen. But Easter calls for not just any old eggs, but bright and bold oval-shaped creations adorned with eye-catching colors and creative applications that give gorgeous optics.

Create Unique Flower Arrangements. Take advantage of Easter’s springtime festivities with fresh blooms in small, petite vases made from egg shells. 

Brunch Buffet. One of my fondest childhood memories about Easter Sunday is of our family gathered with my aunt and cousins all day. We started at church and then headed to our house for games and food. 

My mom and aunt would cook while the kids played, did crafts, enjoyed the Easter baskets (treats and games), and watched traditional Easter Sunday cartoons. We have 3 appetizer recipes that are great for Easter brunch. 

Make Easter Baskets. Instead of having Easter baskets at the ready, corral adults and children alike to create fun, festive baskets for a lovely afternoon—rain or shine. 

Easter Egg Hunt. Folks young and old can enjoy the enormous joy that comes with finding hidden egg treasure and turning in their scores for great prizes and delicious sweet treats. Plus, it’s a safe, socially-distanced way to mark the holiday.

Bake a batch of plain sugar cookies to share in a socially-distanced way among guests. Provide the royal icing and edible glitter, dust, and sprinkles for them to decorate. You can also encourage everyone to bring their own recipe for sharing with the group. 

To make it COVID-friendly, drop off decorated cookies with loved ones to enjoy on their own. Or set up a virtual call for everyone to bake together. We absolutely love sharing this Almond Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chips cookies with our friends and neighbors.
