Have an egg-citing Easter!

18th March 2020 by Lindsay Yap 3 Min Read

https://expatliving.sg/easter-things-to-make-and-do-easter-egg-hunts-and-baking/

Here are some fun things to do with the family, from creating Easter treats to having your own Easter egg hunt!

Bake some Easter treats

Things to make for Easter bunny cupcakes with frosting

Why not whip up some yummy Easter goodies with the kids? You’ll find loads of great recipes on websites such as BBC Good Food and taste.com.au – bunny biscuits or cupcakes, anyone? If not, YouTube is another great place to scout for cool recipes. We also have some fun recipes for you to check out!

Or buy some instead

Pacific Marketplace at Pan Pacific Singapore is back with another cute and yummy selection of Easter treats this year. You’ll find all kinds of sweet treats, from classic hot cross buns filled with chocolate or blueberry cream cheese to marshmallow eggs and chocolate animal lollies.

Want to give the kids a treat? Go for the chocolate beehive egg, which is beautifully decorated with chocolate bees, lady bugs and butterflies. Another one we’ve got our eye on is the apricot dulcey cake in egg – a tasty cake made of apricot crème brûlée, dulcey mousse, vanilla sponge and dried apricot, encased in pink egg-shaped chocolate with a bunny cut-out.

Get them at the shop or order them online from now until 12 April (11am to 6pm).

Have an Easter egg hunt

Send the kids running around the house by organising a fun Easter egg hunt right in your own home! Choose to get plastic eggs that you can fill with treats or go with regular hard-boiled ones. To spice things up a bit, instead of candy, try putting in some fun notes, tasks or even rewards. You can get some cool ideas at Play.Party.Plan.

Sure, it’s a bit of extra work, but the smiles on the kids’ faces are worth it!

Make some Easter crafts

You don’t need much to set up a fun crafts sesh for the kids. Gather items from around the house (recycled paper, bottles, toilet paper rolls – whatever you can get your hands on) plus some paints, markers, glue and scissors, and you’re good to go!

Not sure what to make? There are plenty of great sites where you can get fab ideas for Easter crafts. Many of them come with supply lists, step-by-step instructions and photos so you can follow along easily. You’ll also find loads of cute printables and colouring sheets that you can download for free. Here are a few to get you started:

  • Paper roll chick
  • Tin foil Easter eggs
  • Paper plate Easter bunny
  • Egg carton Easter basket

Watch some movies

What better time to sit down as a family and enjoy a good show? Here are some suggestions:

  • Based on the series by Beatrix Potter, Peter Rabbit is an animated film about mischievous rabbits Peter (voiced by James Corden) and his three sisters that make fun of their neighbour Mr McGregor and steal vegetables from his garden.

Peter Rabbit and friends

  • Hop tells the story of a rabbit called E.B. (the Easter Bunny’s son), who runs away to Hollywood to become a drummer. He ends up being knocked down by a car, driven by Fred, who wants to become the first human Easter bunny.
  • Who doesn’t love Zootopia? Join cute and optimistic officer Judy Hopps (yes, she’s a bunny) from the Zootopia Police Department as she tries to solve the mystery of missing mammals. The show isn’t just all laughs; it also explores relevant issues such as prejudice and morality.

Judy Hopps Zootopia

  • If sweet things are on the kids’ minds, they’ll love Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Starring Johnny Depp as the eccentric Willy Wonka, the 2005 version of the story will have you drooling at the scenes of chocolates and laughing at the silly Oompa Loompas.

Now facelifts can be non-surgical and non-invasive which we love.

This facelift in Singapore uses painless High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU).

How it works.....
HIFU uses ultrasound technology to reach three different depths of the skin, in order to deliver focused beams of 60 to 70 degrees Celsius without disrupting the skin surface. These beams will melt the fats in the face, while tightening the skin and boosting collagen production; this allows your skin to continually lift and tone after the treatment. 

We thought this was super cool so we tried it out. Read the full review on our stories

What would make a doctor like DR MENKA GUPTA transform herself into a functional medicine practitioner and nutritionist in Singapore? 

Her lifelong passion for healing is the answer – and she hasn’t looked back. Born and raised in Lucknow, India, she knew from the age of three that she wanted to be a doctor. After years of working as a specialist in the fields of gastroenterology, general medicine and gynaecology in leading hospitals in the UK, India and Singapore, she joined the Institute for Functional Medicine in 2012, and established Nutra Nourish here five years ago. 

Dr Menka is the the only IFM certified practitioner (IFMCP) in South Asia (there are less than 1,000 globally)

Considered to be the most common cancers in women globally, breast cancer is a serious health issue that can happen to almost anyone.

If you’ve spied an Insta-worthy floral arrangement that immediately had you wondering who designed it and where it came from, chances are you were looking at one of the arrangements of The Floral Atelier. 

According to the company’s floral artisans, designing a beautiful bunch of flowers is as much a science as it is an art. That may explain why they say it takes more than just a “good eye” to create their particular arrangements.

The Floral Atelier’s founder LELIAN CHEW is widely regarded as an authoritative figure in luxury events and florals – to the point where she’s been hailed as the “Million Dollar Wedding Planner” on a BBC documentary! Lelian gave us the lowdown about her creative process and how she and the team design their show-stopping products @thefloralatelier.co @lelianchew

Navigating your daughters’ preteen years is probably one of the most difficult periods of parenting – for you and them. 

Issues around lack of confidence, body image and low self-esteem can start to surface during these years. With the added potential stresses of cyberbullying and social media usage, the pressure is real and the impact on families can be overwhelming. 

Empowering young girls (and boys, of course) is your responsibility as a parent, and it may mean having a guide or a mentor to help them through these preteen and teen issues. 

Establishing emotional literacy from a young age can positively impact how your daughter copes in life, right through to adulthood.

Ramita Anand the founder of Elevate.RA, spoke to us about the ways she helps mentor young girls to make sense of themselves and the world around them....
