A Soft & Sweet Easter

Magical Ideas for Little Celebrations

Wholesome traditions, playful ideas, and darling details for a memorable Easter with your little ones.

At LRDM Petits, Easter is less about perfection and more about togetherness — the kind that feels like childhood magic. Whether you’re planning a quiet Sunday morning at home or a sweet garden gathering, we’ve collected our favorite Easter ideas to make your celebration extra special, playful, and of course, photo-ready.


1. The Paper Tablecloth Trick – Let Them Draw the Day

This simple idea has gone viral for a reason — it’s sweet, creative, and keeps little hands busy while you enjoy your coffee.

What to do:
Use a large roll of kraft paper or white butcher paper as your tablecloth. Place a jar of crayons or pastels on the table and invite the kids to draw Easter bunnies, write messages, or trace around their hands and plates.

Add a little magic:
• Write each guest’s name in soft calligraphy near their place setting
• Draw little flowers, eggs, or leaves across the table
• Leave hidden notes or riddles for an egg hunt right on the table

Bonus: It makes clean-up beautifully easy.


2. A Dreamy Easter Table – Set the Scene

Think natural textures, soft pastels, and touches of whimsy.

Ideas we love:
• Linen napkins tied with velvet ribbon or dried lavender
• A small nest at each place with chocolate eggs inside
• Handmade name tags, or eggs with names painted on them
• Mini bunny ears for the little ones

Decorate with fresh flowers or wild garden picks in glass jars, and don’t be afraid to let the table feel playful and imperfect — the magic is in the charm.


3. Bake Something Together – Sweet & Simple

Easter baking is one of our favorite traditions — not just for the treats, but for the sticky fingers, shared laughter, and flour-dusted cheeks.

Kid-friendly recipes:
Bunny Scones – use a bunny-shaped cookie cutter and serve with jam & cream
Mini Carrot Cakes – bake in muffin tins, top with cream cheese frosting and a marzipan carrot
Easter Sugar Cookies – let little ones decorate with pastel icing and sprinkles
Hot Cross Buns – classic and cozy, served warm with butter

Set up a little baking corner with aprons and wooden spoons, and let the mess happen. It’s all part of the memory.


4. The Easter Egg Hunt – Hide, Seek, Giggle

No Easter is complete without a proper egg hunt! Whether it’s in your backyard, a park, or even inside the house, make it playful and personal.

Make it extra special:
• Write each child’s name on their eggs or give them their own color
• Add handwritten clues or riddles for older children to follow
• Hide small treasures inside – tiny toys, stickers, or little love notes
• Use wooden or reusable eggs for a sustainable touch (and decorate them together beforehand!)

Outfit tip: A romantic tutu, floral print, soft cotton shirt or polo adds to the charm — especially for capturing those mid-hunt giggles.


5. Capture the Moment – Photo Magic

This is the kind of day you’ll want to remember.

Set up a little photo corner:
• A linen sheet hanging from a tree or wall as a backdrop
• Bunny ears, little baskets, and spring flowers as props
• Let the children be wild, silly, and themselves

Golden hour (just before sunset) is the best time for soft, glowing photos — and don’t forget to jump in the frame, Mama and Papa!


6. Create a Keepsake – Easter Memory Book

After the day winds down, gather your children and create a tiny memory book together.

Let them draw what they remember, paste in Polaroids or flowers they picked, or write what they loved most. It doesn’t have to be perfect — just real and from the heart.


Final Thoughts – It’s About the Feeling

Whether your table is fancy or simple, whether your cookies burn or your eggs are hidden too well — Easter, like childhood, is all about feeling the moment. The sweetness. The play. The magic of being together.

From our family to yours, we wish you a soft and joy-filled Easter full of giggles, sprinkles, and slow, golden moments.

With love,
LRDM Petits
