It’s spring. It’s pastels. It’s Easter. You can’t get away from the pinks and blues of Easter madness. Whether it is your first time, your fifth time, or your twentieth time throwing your family’s Easter party, you may need a little help getting your Easter party supplies organized. With no candies, toys, and activities emerging each year, it may be difficult to keep all your details straight.
Start by sorting through your Easter decorations, your Easter cards, and your Easter party “to-do” list. Decide what you will want to keep and what you need to get rid of. It is important to stay organized when it comes to planning parties. Whether you are ready or not, Easter time is here. So get out your candy eggs, your chocolate eggs, your deviled eggs, and turn your oven on, because it’s time to get planning for your Easter party!
Food
Deciding what to serve at your Easter function can be a hard decision to make. With so many options available, it can be hard to settle on one choice. Take into consideration the needs of your guests. Are any of them vegetarian? Do any of them have special dietary needs, such as gluten-free or diabetic? How many guests are there going to be? This is especially important because you want to make sure you at least have enough food to serve everyone one or two platefuls.
What will your main course be? Ham, turkey, duck, or lamb are all good choices for main courses, although that doesn’t leave much choice for any vegetarians. Some great vegetarian main courses are creamy artichoke pasta, artichoke and herb focaccia, and vegetarian couscous and broccoli soup. These are fairly simple recipes that can be served in absence of a meat plate or as an alternative to a meat dish.
For side dishes, your options are numerous and all equally mouth watering good. Try roasted garlic and rosemary potatoes, scalloped potatoes, herb-steamed vegetables, minted sugar snap peas, mushroom risotto, new potatoes with garlic lemon dressing, peppered broccoli, and twice baked potatoes. There are hundreds more of side dish ideas out there. Use these to get yours underway and your dinner cruising.
From traditional pie to bread pudding, your dessert list is almost as expansive as your entrée list. There are hundreds and hundreds of dessert ideas. Depending on the tastes of your guests, you might want to consider rice pudding, pumpkin pie, cupcakes, Easter lamb cake, carrot cake, Easter cookies, Easter egg brownies, Easter bunny pudding desserts, JELL-O JIGGLERS, JELL-O pudding, mini cheesecakes, banana pudding cake, strawberry pretzel squares, and lemon meringue pie. Of course, if you simply use your imagination for a few minutes, you will be able to come up with some cute nicknames for desserts to turn them from regular desserts to festive Easter desserts!
Activities, for the Kids
Easter activities are always fun and exciting, for kids and adults. Arranging activities that can include many people are always entertaining for the entire group of guests. Easter egg hunts are usually the most traditional game played at Easter parties.
You can play an Easter egg hunt by using plastic, store-bought eggs and filling them with candy, mini games, stick-on tattoos, or money, or you can use real Easter eggs that are already decorated. Hide the eggs around the house and yard and set up boundaries to help the kids out.
Another activity you can do is to decorate Easter eggs. This is fun and involves anyone who wants to join. It is simple enough to set up, needing only a few containers or cups of vinegar and Easter egg coloring. You can purchase an Easter egg coloring set at a local department store and they are usually inexpensive. If you are expecting on having a large group involved in the coloring, you should look into purchasing multiple coloring sets.
You can have the kids play Easter Bunny Says, which has the same rules as Simon Says, but changes the name Simon to “Easter Bunny.” You can also set up a bunny sack race. Mark a starting point and a finish line, putting a bag of chocolate just past the finish line, so the “bunnies” have an award for winning. Every player will be suited with a sack for racing in. They will be required to hop their way from one end of the racing lane to the other, with the chocolate candies at stake.
Decorations
Your Easter decorations will be full of pastel colors, Easter eggs, and spring details, such as fresh flowers and bunnies. Using fishing wire, you can hang paper Easter egg cutouts from the ceiling or your stair banisters. You can also tape paper Easter eggs, bunnies, Easter baskets, and flowers to your walls, too.
Your table decorations should follow the same theme, incorporating pastels, spring tones, and fresh, seasonal details. You can use an Easter basket as your centerpiece, filled with jelly beans, chocolates, and other tasty treats. Surround this with cookies or other snacks and you have yourself a fabulous Easter centerpiece!
Place streamers around your house, stringing them from the ceilings to the doorways, to the table edges. Keep them in shades of pastel yellow, blue, green, pink, or purple. If you are crafty, you can even make little flowers out of them to place in bouquets or in Easter baskets around the room. Be inventive with your decorations. Your joy in using them will show in the finished products.
Using only a few simple ideas, with fewer color selections, you can have a grade-A Easter party, filled with delicious treats, a fun atmosphere, and enjoyable people. Who knows, that elusive Easter Bunny just might hop in to say how much he likes all of your Easter party supplies!
