As we will not be setting learning to be completed over the Easter break, we have come up with an Easter Family Challenge for you to get involved with if you would like to. There is no requirement for you to complete this and it is just a bit of fun to pass the time!

The aim of the Easter Family Challenge is to work your way across the board from the start to the finish. Along the way you should complete different connecting challenges as a family. You can document the challenges you complete any way that you like – videos, photos, messages. Please do email us and share your challenges - we cannot wait to see what fun you get up to during the holidays and there will be a special shout out to everyone who has got involved when we get back after the Easter break.

Happy Easter everyone!

Play capture the egg. Get ready for a little friendly competition with this fun take on "Capture the Flag". Divide all your players into two teams. For this game you'll need eight eggs, four each in two different colours. Have each team choose a colour and then line up their eggs on their end of the field. Each team must try to capture the other team's eggs and bring them to their side of the field without being tagged by a member of the opposing team. If a player is tagged by an opponent, they are out. To win, a team must successfully capture all the other team's eggs, or must have the last man standing.

Score major points with this version of boules. Start with a dozen hardboiled eggs (or more, depending on the number of players). Leave one white, and dye each of the others a different colour. Gently toss the white egg onto the lawn. Each player takes turns rolling their coloured eggs toward the white one, trying to see who can get closest without touching it. For more of a challenge, play with raw eggs and eliminate each player who breaks their egg trying to get close to the white egg!
