Easter

• Sleep late.
• Listen to a prayer app.
• Dress in the way we feel is fitting to the occasion.
• Eat differently to the average week day – have hot cross buns and tea, make unleavened bread, eat boiled eggs that we have decorated (with food colouring), make some special Easter dishes.
• We will probably change the position of the furniture in one of our rooms.
• We will not work or school, in fact, I am not going to even sit at my desk.
• Join up to a church service on-line. (If you have never physically attended a church service, now is a great opportunity to visit one incognito.)
• Connect with the broader family on a whatsapp group call (this might even be during the meal-time we usually spend together at Easter).
• Have an Easter egg hunt, inside and outside the house.
• Eat supper by candle-light, use a special tablecloth.
• Make memories with our lockdown family: re-enacting old Easter traditions and maybe adding some new ones, reading a book together, looking at photos, playing games, trying some of the newly free on-line activities e.g. visiting an on-line museum together, having a look into the Kruger park game drives, downloading an audiobook from Audible. There are so many other fun ideas for free family activities (physical & virtual) if you do a quick Google search…

What will you be doing this weekend?
