Easter Activities to enjoy at Home

Some of our sweetest springtime childhood memories involve the Easter holiday ~ the decorations, the food, visits from grandparents and cousins and, of course, the Easter Eggs! Hours were spent dyeing hard boiled eggs in all the saturated hues of the color spectrum. Stickers, stencils and markers were our tools and the dyed eggs our canvas to create little unique masterpieces to tuck into the Easter grass within our pastel wicker baskets.

Need a quick way to decorate Easter eggs?  Pick up an Eggmazing from Tomfoolery for no mess, high fun decorating!

Today the fun continues even after the eggs are decorated ~and Tom is here for all of it! From the Easter egg hunt, to the whimsical crafts to cookie decorating ~  Tom and the chickies at Tomfoolery Toys & Books (aka Houston’s best toy store!) have been filling the store with ALL things Easter to help you create the perfect Bunny Day! We’ve even created plastic Easter egg bundles stuffed with themed toys that will egg-cite all the bunnies in your world! Some of the bundles even include the coveted Golden Eggs that are guaranteed to make your Easter Egg hunt the hoppin’ place to be! Even cooler? Put mini glow sticks in the eggs for a Glow-in-the-Dark Egg Hunt that will have even the Big Kids grabbing their baskets to join in!

Do you equate “Easter activities” with Easter treats? (raises hand) How about making Peep Houses? We all know and love gingerbread houses, but what if you take that tradition and make it Easter-y? Graham crackers, icing, skittles and you’ve created a home for your Peeps that is fun to build and even more fun to eat!

What is Easter without cookie decorating?

Tomfoolery has Cookie decorating kits available in store that include both pre-baked cookies and food coloring markers….I mean, does it get any yummier or easier? 


In the days leading up to Easter it is fun to have projects and activities to help us build the excitement as we count down the time until the Easter Rabbit makes his early morning appearance dropping Easter eggs all over Houston! 


Whether your holiday leans toward reverence or whimsy, we can all agree with Tom that the sweetness of the day comes from the celebrations! The gatherings of friends and family, the laughter, the opened eggs and candy wrappers, the smell of the honey glazed ham, the brightly colored eggs scattered about the yard, the Littles dressed in their Easter finery and the Easter Candy…always the Candy!
