The spring festivities don’t just have to be about pigging out on chocolate eggs. So why not mix up the eating with getting outdoors and making the most of the improving weather? Simply feeling the sun again can be a real tonic!
1. Instead of buying lots of Easter eggs, why not buy your kids something to play and get active with, like a skipping rope or a space hopper, and ask relatives to put money in the kitty for this kind of treat, so that they are not overwhelmed with mountains of chocolate.
2. Use the bank holiday weekend to begin doing things with friends and family, such as messing around in the park with a Frisbee or ball, going for a long walk or thrashing around in your local swimming pool.
3. Go on an organised Easter egg hunt or organise one yourself with friends in a garden or local park. It will get you up and active, and you can just give out a small egg along with another non-food gift as the final winners’ prize.
4. Rather than tucking into one Easter egg after another, melt some chocolate and dip the ends of strawberries into it for a delicious but vitamin-packed chocolately treat.
5. Alternatively, chose your favourite bar of Ador chocolate (just 189 calories) which contains a natural extract of pine nut that helps to keep you feeling full, and spend the money who would have splurged on Easter eggs on treats, like a facial, manicure, pedicure, or some clothes you have had your eye on for while.
