Easter at Powerscourt Garden Pavilion
The Easter holidays are on the horizon and that can mean only one thing; trying to keep the kids occupied! This is where the garden comes into its own. It’s great to get the kids outside and involved in tidying up the garden or planting some colour for the coming months and here at Powerscourt Garden Pavilion we have the perfect kid-sized tools for digging, as well as a great choice of seeds designed to spark their interest in gardening.
Turn it into an adventure looking for bugs with magnifying glasses and studying them up close with one of our bug viewers. If you’re squeamish about bugs even better; let the kids chase you around the garden! There’s nothing better than hearing them laughing, and remember, you used to do that too when you were their age. Encourage them not to be afraid of spiders even though you might be – you could use this to your advantage!
When those April showers strike, a little imagination goes a long way. Arrange some stray twigs that you may have tidied from the garden in a vase and create an Easter tree. There are egg painting sets here at Powerscourt Garden Pavilion to decorate your tree with, or you can add ribbons, chicks and ready-decorated eggs from our selection to your creations.
Kids like to go all out for any occasion so why not decorate your home with the pastels of the season? You could decorate your front door with one of our wreaths or your kitchen table with a fun chicken-shaped bowl or an egg cup with none other than the Easter Bunny on the lid. Keep things simple and have lots of fun; remember these are their childhood memories that you are creating, so let’s make them special!
All of the team here at Powerscourt Garden Pavilion wish you a very happy Easter, and we look forward to hearing about all the fun you have had over the holidays.
Best wishes,
Penny
