Watch: Hop into the fun with these Easter arts, crafts and goodies
With rising inflation and a recent increase in VAT, many families are feeling the pinch. But moments of joy don’t have to break the bank. Sometimes, it’s the simplest things that create memories that last a lifetime.
EASTER isn’t just about chocolate eggs and hot cross buns — though those certainly help set the festive tone.
It’s a time of renewal, reflection, and, for many families, a chance to create magical moments. And while the religious significance of Easter remains central, there’s no harm in adding a little extra sparkle — especially for the children.
