So, let’s be honest. The children have a fortnight’s Easter holiday from school looming. This is, on one level, a time for joyful family togetherness and creating memories you will always treasure. On another, it is a seemingly endless cycle of stopping them from bickering, dealing with complaints that they’re bored, and trying to remove felt tip pen marks from the furniture.
We have the perfect toys and games to keep them amused during the school holidays, whatever the weather.
We can deliver quickly too. Here is the Wicked Uncle Guide to rocking at Easter holiday fun.
Walk Like A Chicken – Scavenger Hunt Game
Race to find tokens in this totally wacky preschool game for 2 or more players. Have an adult hide the pieces around the house or yard, then start the scavenger hunt. But there’s a clever catch – whatever token you’re looking for, that’s the way you have to move! From hopping like a kangaroo to zooming like an airplane, you’ve never looked so silly! With 18 funny cards, this smart game is a great way to get little ones active. Guaranteed giggles!
Kids Charades – Fun Acting Game
This all time classic game where the rules are simple, act out a phrase without speaking, while the other members of your team try to guess what it is. With six categories to choose from there’s an act for everyone, with simple, humorous mimes to raise a smile and giggle. From a Cheetah or a Skipping Rope to a Skateboard or a Circus Tent (tricky!) – pick a card, flip the timer and let the fun begin!
Jumbo Octopus Kite – 4M long!
This wonderful octopus kite is truly impressive and flies beautifully, its long rainbow tentacles fluttering across the sky. Easy to fly, measuring a colossal 4 meters from end to end, this great kite comes in its own handy storage bag and includes an extra-long line and sturdy handle. Excellent fun for amateurs and experts alike and perfect for windy beach or park days. Available in three bold colours – prepare to be blown away!
Kids Scavenger Hunt
A fun challenge game to search and find objects first, play indoors or outside. Get ready as the spinner decides how many cards each player has, then the race is on to to track down the pictured objects. Play indoors to collect household items from a trainer or ball to a cuddly toy or piece of fruit. For fresh air fun, use the outdoors cards to search for anything from a red flower to a twig or a garden ornament. Some cards show the camera icon to take a photo as proof – better than bringing back an actual snail! Entertaining and very energetic – rip-roaring fun!!
