1. Create a magical easter garden

A homemade Easter garden is a wonderful way to get creative with kids and welcome spring. Cress is particularly ideal because it grows quickly, and you can see the first results after just a few days. All you need is a small waterproof dish, some kitchen paper or cotton wool, cress seeds, and water. Line the dish with damp kitchen paper or cotton wool, sprinkle the seeds on top, and place it in a bright spot. Make sure to regularly moisten the seeds so they can sprout well. For an extra touch, you can craft a small fence around the Easter garden with ice cream sticks. Kids will love watching the cress grow every day – and the best part: it tastes delicious on fresh egg bread!

2. Glitter eggs – Fun for the little ones

Even the tiniest crafters can help make sparkling glitter eggs! Instead of liquid glue, a glue stick is ideal for children aged two and up – it keeps things a bit cleaner. A great alternative is double-sided tape: simply stick it in strips or patterns on the egg and sprinkle the sticky areas with glitter. For extra fun, little fingers can roll the eggs in glitter or gently dust them with a soft brush. You can also press colourful confetti pieces or little stars onto the glue. This creates magical, colourful Easter eggs – all without complicated techniques!

3. Creative homemade easter decorations for the home

Why not fill the space with homemade Easter decorations made by your kids? From painted Easter branches to homemade Easter cookies – the possibilities are endless!

D-I-Y:

Easter branch: Place a small branch in a vase and let your kids decorate it with colourful paper flowers or homemade painted eggs.
Easter bunnies from cardboard: Cut out bunny ears and faces from cardboard with your kids, and decorate them with pom-poms and googly eyes. These can then be hung around the house in various corners.

With these creative ideas, your home will become the perfect Easter wonderland!

4. A cosy craft corner for Easter crafting

Especially during Easter, crafting and creativity are especially popular with kids. It’s important to have a cosy workspace where kids can let their ideas flow. A crafting corner equipped with all kinds of crafting supplies, crayons, practical chairs, a soft rug, cute lamps, and more provides the perfect spot. Here, they can present their homemade Easter decorations and get creative.

Our Bunny table and chair set is not only practical but also a charming addition to any creative corner. It’s perfect for small Easter projects in the kids' room or garden. With a Montessori table set, children can let their imagination run wild while crafting or hunting for Easter eggs. Our house-shaped desk «Maison» also provides a protected and playful space for creative development.

5. These Easter gifts promote imagination and creativity

Who doesn’t love to dive into imaginative adventures with sand, water, and other elements at the beginning of spring? the sand and water play table «Forêt » and the sensory box «Nance» are perfect for creative Easter surprises. While the play table with its foldable containers invites imaginative adventures with sand, water, and more, the sensory box delights with its 12 colourful wooden discs and countless play possibilities. Kids can practice memory games and colour sorting, or fill the box with sand, rice, or pasta to discover new textures.

The mobile tabletop of the play table also includes a built-in train track – compatible with Ikea and Brio trains – as well as a chalkboard for drawing and writing. These well-thought-out play ideas foster creativity, and motor skills, and provide hours of playtime – the perfect Easter gift for little explorers!

6. Great storage solutions for the Easter chaos

After all the crafting, egg hunts, and creative ideas, there is certainly a lot of material and toys that need to be tidied up. At Petite Amélie, we offer practical, beautiful, and playful storage solutions that quickly make the playroom tidy again while also serving as adorable Easter decorations.

For example, our 2-piece wooden toy box «Arc-en-Ciel », not only offers storage but also provides seating and is stackable. Or our Bookcase «Ciel», which is perfect for storing artwork, drawing paper, and crafting materials.

Our storage solutions help you quickly and neatly store everything so that the kids have room for new ideas after crafting and playing.
