2. Bunny Hop Races: Get those little legs moving with a bunny hop race! Designate a starting line and encourage toddlers and preschoolers to hop like bunnies to the finish line. This activity promotes gross motor skills development and adds a playful twist to traditional races.

3. Spring Sensory Exploration: Take a leisurely stroll through nature and encourage toddlers and preschoolers to engage their senses. Feel the texture of fresh spring flowers, listen to the chirping of birds, and breathe in the crisp, fragrant air. This sensory exploration fosters an appreciation for the natural world and stimulates curiosity.

4. Easter-themed Crafts: Set up a crafting station outdoors and let creativity bloom! Provide materials for Easter-themed crafts such as egg painting, bunny mask making, or creating springtime collages. This hands-on activity encourages fine motor skills development and allows toddlers and preschoolers to express their artistic flair.

5. Picnic in the Park: Gather your Easter treats and enjoy a picnic in the park with your little ones. Spread out a blanket, bask in the sunshine, and savor delicious snacks together. Picnics provide a wonderful opportunity for relaxation, bonding, and enjoying the beauty of nature.

6. Planting Spring Flowers: Teach toddlers and preschoolers about the magic of growth by planting spring flowers together. Let them dig in the dirt, plant seeds or bulbs, and water the plants. Watching their flowers bloom over time instills a sense of responsibility and appreciation for the natural world.
