Things to Do During the Easter Holidays

Things to Do During the Easter Holidays
By Jenny Oneills

Easter holidays offer a nice break between the winter and the summer holidays. Many people love to relax and get ready for the coming spring. One idea is to take a trip to the beach. Even during the cooler spring months of March and April, a stroll along the beach is relaxing. The crowds are usually much smaller than during the summer months. When no on the beach, it is a good time to walk the shops and see what they offer. Many vendors have great sales this time of year. Getting out of the city and getting to the beach is something you can enjoy.

London is a great place to be during the Easter holidays. You can go to Easter services at Westminster Abbey or St. Paul's Cathedral. You will also find orchestral and choral music throughout the holy week in both locations. For an Easter egg hunt, consider Kew Gardens. You can also enjoy a trip up on the London Eye to catch the views of the London skyline and surrounding counties. You will find some museums offering discount or free admittance. You and the entire family can find many things to do on the holidays.

You might consider a trip to a theme park or two over the Easter holidays. If Lancashire is close to home or somewhere that sounds different, you should visit Camelot Theme Park. You will find knights battling and wizards dueling. Another option would be Chessington World of Adventures. With a mixture of roller coasters, rides, and wildlife, this theme park offers fun for people of many ages. It is a popular destination any time of year. The best part is that it is only a short distance outside of Central London. It is a good place to go if you do not want to leave the City.

If you want to get away from the house, but do not have a great deal to spend, consider taking a stroll among the hundreds of woodland sites available across the country. They are free and accessible from anywhere. Many of these sites offer activity packs for the children to keep them occupied. Another cost effective option is museums. Most museums are open free. They range from natural history to science and history. These are just a few of the options you should consider when thinking about your Easter holidays. What do you want to do?
