We are getting closer and closer to Easter now. It’s only 3 days until Good Friday now. Unfortunately I have to work that day but Easter Sunday is the day really we do the Easter Egg Hunt in our house.
I thought it would be fun to share a list of events all over Ireland with you which do Easter Egg Hunts in your local town maybe and it gives you something to do with your kids. Here is to good weather!! (cheers)
