Easter is one of the most exciting occasions for a child, the sun's out, lots of chocolate and cute bunnies and eggs! We have Six ideas to help you host a beautiful baby-friendly Easter gathering! Follow this simple guide and you will have a stunning and memorable party that the little Easter egg hunters will love!
Babies won't be running around hunting for eggs but they still love to explore. For this just keep it simple, scatter some eggs around a soft grassy area and let them see what they can find. Add fun characters and little bunny cutouts to add to the mood. Maybe even add some easy obstacles but nothing too tricky as we don't want them losing interest.
You can also get some fillable eggs and add toys/treats inside as a reward for their exploration. Sometimes just getting eggs that jingle can be a fantastic reward for a child, something to play with that makes fun sounds. You can securely tape a few of them shut with dry rice or pasta inside to create instant, homemade shakers! Don't forget about a basket to store the eggs in!
Sweets and chocolate might be what Easter is best known for, but there are healthier gifts that babies will love and treasure as they grow up. Creating an Easter themed soft toy is a fun activity small children can take part in and when they are finished they get a cuddly and soft buddy they can keep. Make a bear kits allow you to choose an animal, pick an outfit and stuff the teddy yourself. They also come with a birth certificate to fill out and you can add a sound recorder to give your teddy a personal message that can be played whenever the teddy is squeezed.
Bright colours and cartoony decorations can set the mood well and add to the atmosphere which babies will love. Keep it visually stimulating but soft. Hang some beautiful pastel bunting, and a few giant, shiny foil Easter balloons around the room.
Create some great photo moments and scenes with a warm spring feel. You could also personalise the Easter decorations with banners and balloons that have cute photos and messages on them.
Simple and gentle games that babies can take part in are a great way to add a little excitement to the party. If you made a cuddly friend earlier you could use it for pass the plushie where you play music and pass it around until the music stops.
Blowing bubbles can also be an exciting and simple game babies love. Gently blowing bubbles around the room can add some magic to the party.
You can't forget about some yummy food, a nice setup of nibbles to pick from and a nice area to sit and enjoy the day, hopefully the sun is out and you can have a buffet/picnic on the grass but if not then having some chill out time with some good tunes and great food can make up for the weather nicely.
Wrap up a great party with some Easter themed party bag full of goodies they will love after the party is over. Toys, games and treats that keep the fun going and show how much you appreciate everyone that came to the party. Easter themed bags and lots of toys and activities go brilliantly together to create the perfect "thank you for coming" gift.
Don't forget, you can enjoy next-working-day delivery on items ordered before 3pm on Friday. That means you can get the party started in no time!
Timing is everything with babies! Mid-morning (around 10:00 AM) or mid-afternoon (around 2:00 PM) usually works best to avoid clashes with those crucial midday naps.
Keep it intimate. For babies, a small gathering of 4 to 6 little ones (plus their parents) is usually plenty. Too many people can easily lead to overstimulation and tears.
Yes, as long as they are kept safely out of reach! Ensure balloons are securely tied down, keep small confetti off the floor, and always supervise the babies around the play areas.
If you want to stick to zero-sugar treats, fill their party bags with sensory toys, soft plushies, bath toys, or age-appropriate snacks like fruit pouches or rice cakes.
