Check out our roundup of the most fun ways to celebrate Easter with the kids in 2017!
Whatever your take on Easter, one thing’s for sure – the kids aren’t going to want to pass up an opportunity to hunt for eggs, eat chocolate and get a visit from the Easter bunny! We’ve rounded up some of the most egg-cellent kid friendly events and treats so hop to it and start planning!

From a delicious Mediterranean buffet with a special Easter twist to a super fun Easter egg hunt for the littles (plenty of treats included), there’s also the added bonus of a fully supervised kids area so that you and the other grown-ups can actually enjoy a minute’s peace!
