Make a note of your favorites!
1. Easter crafts
We start with a fun and very entertaining plan for the little ones of the house. If there is one thing that characterizes this time of the year, it is the explosion of colors, so there is nothing like an afternoon of crafts and drawings to have a great time. Adults can also participate!An original idea can be to draw, paint and cut out Easter eggs to decorate the house. Everyone can create their own and place it in the place they like best in the house. For example, you can glue a stick (made of cardboard or the stick of an ice cream you have eaten) on the back and place it in a flower pot to decorate the plants. They will be beautiful and very festive!
Another idea? Great! Why not paint the shells of some eggs directly? You can do it in many different ways, for example with special sprays, markers or acrylic paint.
2. Cooking typical Easter dishes
If there is a perfect way to spend Easter at home that is, without a doubt, enjoying good home cooking. Take advantage of these days to cook without stress or schedules and delight yourself with the most typical Easter dishes.At this time of the year, the most popular recipes are desserts and traditional meals such as delicious beans with sweet, fritters or dishes made of fish... We know, your mouth is watering, right?
Although you are going to give yourself a little sweet treat, what we want is that these days of more freedom you have the opportunity to eat better and more quietly. So, open the recipe book and fill yourself with gastronomic tributes without giving up eating in a healthy way.
3. Picnic on the terrace
Do you have a terrace or other outdoor space? Make the most of it! Spring, among other things, allows us to enjoy those days when the sun is shining but not annoying. So, what better than going out to the balcony or terrace and setting up a small picnic?If you like this idea, we recommend that you first condition the space a little bit, so decorate the terrace. Do a good cleaning to remove all the dust and dirt and add the necessary accessories: a folding table, some cushions to sit or lie on the ground ... whatever! Once ready, it will be perfect to enjoy a different day outdoors, but with all the comfort that your home has to offer.
Don't have a space to have a picnic or the weather just isn't right? We love creativity and, therefore, we do not rule out the idea of setting up an indoor picnic. To give it a different feel, clear out the living room and add a few accessories, especially textiles. A few cushions here, a few blankets there and... voila, you've got yourself a picnic.

4. Family activities
We have already talked a little about some crafts to enjoy your free time this Easter, but what if we now propose a game to complement that idea? Of course, always following a theme. Let it be noticed that we are on vacation.The game we want to talk about is called ''In search of the Easter egg'' and, as its name suggests, it is about hiding and looking for an Easter egg all over the house. You can play in many ways, but our proposal is the following:
Simply draw a floor plan of the house as if it were a treasure map and design a route that will take them from room to room until they find the Easter egg. You can set quizzes and challenges along the way, such as a riddle, to make the game last a little longer and the adventure more entertaining. The big reward can be anything your little ones like, but in this case, we've chosen a little case full of delicious chocolate eggs. They'll have a blast!
5. Round of board games
You are never too old to enjoy a good afternoon of board games. There are games for all tastes and ages. Some are more dynamic, others more traditional, and that makes us always find one with which we can spend hours and hours with friends or family enjoying a fun time together. That's why we don't want to miss this opportunity to recommend you to leave technology aside for a while and turn to these entertaining games. Are you up for it?Check out our games
6. Cross off the ''to-do'' list
It may not be the most fun plan in the world for an Easter at home, but think that these days off offer us a perfect opportunity to cross off those pending tasks that always remain to be done and we never find the time. Besides, even if you have to dedicate some time to these, afterwards you will feel a great satisfaction because there is nothing better than having nothing on hold and finding peace of mind.What things can be part of that famous list of ''things I want to do and never decide''? The first thing that comes to mind is, for example, everything that has to do with the big cleanings, those that we do more in the long run and that are so necessary, or on the other hand, organizational tasks such as shelves, drawers or pantry ... But not everything has to do with tasks of order and cleaning, surely you have pending more entertaining activities such as completing that photo album you want to do or review the documents on your computer and classify them.
7. Closet Change
We know that the saying ''until the fortieth of May, don't take off your hat'' is quite wise when it comes to our clothes. However, we can begin to remove the thicker garments of the winter and take out those that are popularly known as "in-between seasons".Therefore, this idea is thought a little with the purpose of the previous one, to order those things that we know that sooner or later we will have to do. If you start with a small seasonal transition in your closet, the volume of that work of washing and storing clothes will not be so intense and you will see more clearly what clothes you have for this season.
Remember! Don't put away the blankets or thinner long sleeves just yet. There are still some cooler days ahead.

8. Practice some sport
Good habits should not be lost and, therefore, we propose a little exercise at home, especially if in your daily routine do not have much time to do it.You don't need to have a lot of equipment, this year we have demonstrated it enough, so, with a little conditioning the living room by clearing the furniture will be more than enough. Do you have a terrace? Much better!
As a special recommendation, we suggest that you do not set too complex or long series, especially if you are not used to it. Adapt the exercises to your level and concentrate on 20-30 minutes of exercise. With very little you can feel great, believe us. Plus, the reward shower is super satisfying.
9. Spa time at home
And speaking of showers... What if after our exercise routine we turn shower time into a self-care session?You can put on some relaxing music in the background and make that little while much more special. That doesn't mean that we have to stay under the water for ever, remember to use water responsibly. However, you can take care of certain pre- and post-shower details, such as ambient music, a special hair mask, or even a facial treatment.

10. Do nothing
Doing nothing as an Easter plan? We think it's wonderful. Don't get us wrong, we don't want you to be on the couch every day, but we do think it's totally permissible to give yourself a day of absolute freedom. And that's because breaks are also very important.In fact, we should not feel guilty for not having the energy to do things all the time. Sometimes, it is better to give ourselves a day, an afternoon, or a few hours to not do many things or at least not plan to do them.
