Eggcellent Monday - Week 2

I really wanted to post pictures and an update from our Week 1 Eggcellent Monday, but basically it was a no go. Sometimes a 3 year old does not want to cooperate and is put to bed. However, this week, will be a blast!

Food: 

• Hidden Surprise Easter Egg Treats found here. I love these and will fill them up with left over jelly beans from our previous week. 

Activity:

•  "Some Bunny Love You!" thumb print cards. I am going to try to get these done today and hopefully will post pictures.

• Animal Charades: I think we will do this during the day or as I am getting dinner ready. Logan loves to act like animals, so I will create some cards and we can draw one and run around, make noises, and pretend to be that animal. Hannah loves to run behind and laugh. 

• Don't Eat Peep! I love, love, love this site, Prepared Not Scared!, and their games. We did a similar game at Thanksgiving, and we all loved it! 

***For all games that I want to use again, I print on card stock and laminate.

It's April!

{Please excuse my lack of posts. Life became a bit busy, but we should be back to business now.}

I can't believe March has come and gone and April is now here. Unfortunately, we are not going to be celebrating April Fools (also my birthday!) due to my son having a little oral surgery. However, I have all of April to celebrate everything Easter. 

April's theme was a bit hard and I had to take a break from the alliteration. So after some hard thinking and a lot of x'ing out... April is...

Eggcellent Monday!

However, if you have a better theme, please leave a comment and we may need to change midway through. It's a dull afternoon today and my brain is dead!

This week's festivities include:

Food: 

• Easter Egg Nests found here. I am going to get some jelly beans for the center. 
• A few store bought Easter treats

Activities: 

• Have a cake walk using the Egg Nests as the prizes. I am going to create large eggs out of construction paper and Logan and I will decorate them on Sunday. I will then number each one on the back. We will play some fun family music (love Pandora) while walking from egg to egg. When the music stops, a number will be drawn from a hat, and whoever is on the correct number will get to take an Eggs Nest or treat from the basket. 

•  I also love this envelope bunny idea from Martha Stewart. We will make our own and hang them (with the eggs) on our family wall. 

I am not a big Easter decoration fan. However, I do LOVE flowers and love this flower/candy idea from Martha.

 I also like this Easter Tree from, yes, you guessed it, Martha.  She is my go- to this week!
