• 　　Now that Easter is over, what are you going to do with all of those plastic Easter eggs- Easter Day Crafts? All of those eggs that you seem to accumulate more of each year should be put to good use! Here are 5 quick ideas

  　　Bird feeders. Instead of spreading peanut butter around pine cones to make bird feeders, simply use your plastic Easter eggs. Before the project, hot-glue the eggs closed and attach a ribbon to the top for hanging. After covering the eggs completely with peanut butter and rolling them in birdseed, hang the finished feeders on your backyard trees.

  　　Instruments. Fill your empty plastic eggs with either dried beans or rice to create mini maracas. Be sure to hot-glue the eggs together to avoid any messy band rehearsals!

  　　Easter Decorations. Use the eggs to make Easter decorations for next year. For example, hot-glue ribbon to them to create ornaments that can be used to create an Easter tree (by hanging the eggs on small tree branches), or glue Easter grass and plastic eggs to a cardboard shaped wreath to create Easter wreaths for your facility’s doors.

  　　Games. Create fun games for your participants to play in which the plastic eggs come in handy, like tossing games or even an egg bocce ball game, in which participants try to roll their colorful eggs as close to a white egg as possible without touching it.

  　　Inter-generational Crafts. Finally, try to host inter-generational activities in which kids can assist your residents with making fun toys and crafts, like these Easter egg glow bugs, by gluing pipe cleaners, googly eyes, and felt to the Easter eggs. Add even more interest to the toy bugs by placing battery-operated tea lights inside to make them glow.

  　　Make Easter Baskets. In the invitation, advertise that the grand kids will be able to make their own Easter baskets. What kid wouldn’t love that? Provide the grand kids with Easter grass, chocolate bunnies, jelly beans, and tissue paper to fill their baskets.

  　　Host a Chocolate Bunny-Making Class. Teach the kids how to make their own

  　　chocolate Easter bunnies using just melted chocolate and bunny molds. After filling the molds with chocolate, freeze them for several minutes for the chocolate to harden. Then place candy inside one side of the mold and use melted chocolate to act as the glue to seal the other side of the mold to create the bunnies.

  　　Play Fun Easter-Inspired Games. Entertain the grandkids with fun Easter games like a bunny-popper ball toss.

  　　Host Fun Competitions. Host several competitions for the grandkids, like Name That Jelly Bean, in which the kids must identify the flavor of each jelly bean, or an egg-and-spoon race.

  　　Schedule an Easter Easter activitiesBunny Visit. Recruit one of your facility’s administrators to dress up as the Easter bunny to hand out Easter candy to the kids.

  　　Dye Easter Eggs. No Easter party would be complete without coloring Easter eggs. This is our favorite of the Easter activities. Encourage your residents to enjoy this inter-generational activity as they assist their grandkids with dying Easter eggs for the kids to take home.

  　　Give Gifts. Finally, give plush rabbits to the grandkids to take home with them in exchange for spending quality time with Grandma and Grandpa. If gifts are not an option, pass out balloons. After all, kids love balloons!
