A Safe and Sustainable Easter Weekend

Let’s not forget about our loved ones this Easter even though we may be spending the weekend with a smaller group indoors this year due to the COVID-19 relief efforts. To help everyone stay connected to our families, we came up with simple ways you can celebrate Easter Weekend with your loved ones this year in a safe and sustainable way.

1/ Bake some treats for porch delivery

Nothing says love like homemade baked goods at your doorstep. With a couple of simple ingredients, you can whip up some cute Easter treats to share with your loved ones and neighbours. We love this recipe by Eating Bird Food:

With only a few ingredients you can make delicious and adorable little nests out of mini eggs, rolled oats and coconut shreds:

INGREDIENTS

1 ½ cups unsweetened shredded coconut
3/4 cup chocolate chips
24 Cadbury mini eggs, jelly beans or macadamia nuts

When you're done, put the egg nests in cute little baskets like we did here to prep them for delivery! Ring the bell and safely place them on the porch or doorstep. You'll make everyone's day!

2/ Make Easter crafts with the kids

You don’t have to go far in the Pinterest world to find fun arts and crafts ideas to do with the kids. Painting eggs? Poke two holes on either side of them, and blow out the insides to save them for eating later.

Here's a simple egg decorating tutorial to get those creative juices flowing!

Want to gift your loved ones a little something more? Here's a cute towel animal craft we came up with using our LNBF towel set that doubles as a gift basket treat:

Step 1: Find a little facetowel like the one from our 3pc Towel Set:

Step 2: Fold away!

2/ Deliver a grocery basket to an elderly

Nana is probably at home wishing she could go out for a grocery shop. What better way to surprise her than with some fresh veggies, pasta sauce and pasta noodles!

Purchase a bit extra during your trip to the market and pack a cooler basket full of fresh produce.

3/ Have a virtual feast with your loved ones.

We are fortunate to live in an age where video calls allow us to be face-to-face with our loved ones. Arrange a good time for everyone to feast together, and make sure they are set up with a device that they can video chat with.
