Making Lego Soap, Easter Eggs and Rainbows Planting

Lock down continues in to the Easter weekend and Holly has been busy making home made bars of soap with hidden Lego figures inside, doing loads of Easter crafts and planting some aloe vera and marigolds as parts of one of her Rainbows badges. The Lego soaps are actually really good and are now spread throughout the house in all of our bathrooms.

As usual we also started our Easter weekend on Good Friday and so the Easter bunny has already visited out house with the chocolate eggs. We haven't done our garden Easter egg hunt just yet as we figured we should save some of the Easter activities for Easter Sunday (I think I have used the word Easter far too many times in that paragraph!).

Holly loves making anything with soap or slime so this was right up her street.

Joshua opted for our other Easter breakfast, half an Easter egg filled with Coco Pops.

The Easter Bunny had been and Holly was very excited to see all the chocolate eggs and the message left on the light box.

She decorated this pot and then added some marigold seeds.

And this pot was a belated Aloe Vera plant which Holly was supposed to decorate and plant for Mothers Day.
