Easter Eggstravaganza at Willows Activity Farm

amomentwithfranca · 27 March 2016 · 22 Comments

We had such a great time last weekend at Willows Activity Farm where they had awesome Easter Eggstravaganza activities organised for the kids.

Willows Activity Farm is located in St Albans so it only took us 30 minutes to get there by car from London. It’s a great place to visit with the whole family, where you find activities such as shows, funfair rides, inflatables and adventure play. There is so much to do that your kids will love it. I will do a more extensive post about what Willows Activity Farm has to offer so look out for that.

We made  a short video about the Easter Egg Hunt which you can see below:

As it’s Easter this post is all about the exciting Easter Eggs Hunt that we did as part of the Easter Eggstravaganza activities. Bella was really excited to go to the Easter Garden area where it took place. It was all really well organised and the decorations were lovely. I was very impressed as they had really done a good job.

When we arrived they explained that the girls needed to search for and collect 5 different colour wooden egg shape tokens (yellow, green, red, blue and orange) in order to  win 5 chocolate eggs. My girls were each given a little plastic basket so they were able to collect the tokens.

There were several wooden little houses around the Easter Garden area which was so nice for the girls to go in and check for tokens. Sienna loved it as she really wanted to go inside them and play.

There were also lots of bunnies everywhere dressed with different coloured clothes. There were also big wooden egg shapes in different colours.

It was a relatively big space for them to run about with freedom and have lots of fun searching. Of course, Bella had to guide Sienna as she didn’t have much of a clue about what to do lol. However she understood that she would get some chocolates at the end.

We searched all around in order to get all the different colour tokens. Bella was very good at it, finding them all pretty quickly! This meant we could then take the tokens to the “egg exchange” house to each collect 5 mini eggs. They were so happy when they got their chocolates!!!

We were really lucky because when we arrived at the Easter Garden the sun was out making it look even more beautiful with lots of colours. We couldn’t miss this opportunity so I asked Nick to take some photos of me and the girls in front of some of the cool decorations. You can see below all the photos we took together. They were lovely!

What do you think of our Egg Hunting? Will you go to Willows Activity Farm with your family and experience it too? Have you been there or done your own Egg Hunting this year? Leave your comment as I would love to read what your thoughts are. 

*Disclaimer: we were invited to spend the day at Willows Activity Farm in exchange of an honest review. All my thoughts are my own.

Thanks for stopping by,

Love you all ❤️

    The kids looked like they had a lot of fun! We took ours to an indoor egg hunt (too rainy for outdoors) but it was far too busy and we felt rushed along. This looks far better.
