Easter Fun!



Well even though Easter is officially over, the chocolates are still flowing....

The Easter Bunny was very kind to me this year leaving my husband and I a jar of goodies each (he he).



One of the fun things I found for the kids this year was these 'Growing Chicks'.  They are eggs which once placed in water, slowly over about 48 hours, start to break open and a chick will hack out. Then over a further 5 or so days the chick will grow to its full size.

The kids loved waking up each day and checking how much more their eggs had cracked.  I only gave one to my 2 and 6 year olds because I thought my 10 year old boy was too old for it, but I did find him checking on them and getting quite excited and showing the other kids at times.  It just goes to show that we are never too old for a bit of fun!

Day 5




A very cute solution to having to deal with real eggs and chicks I must say.  This one was a winner for me and the kids!
