A hop, skip and a jump over to Beningbrough this Easter!

 


Easter weekend is finally here, and we hope that everyone is enjoying themselves and relaxing! Here’s what we’ve been doing at Beningbrough over the last couple of days…


Our favourite so far has been the Cadbury Easter Egg Trail, which turns families into mini explorers as they navigate round the house and gardens searching for clues, which eventually lead them back to base camp, and to the reward of a Cadbury Egghead.


The egg and spoon race has also proved popular; children of all ages have to balance speed with care as they try not to drop the egg. The look on their faces shows how much they are concentrating!






Just an hour ago, Artrageous was buzzing as families waited for the Easter Bunny! We’ve had some really creative decorated eggs added to the Beningbrough Royal Egg Gallery already, showing princes and princesses, and kings and queens to fit in with our royals theme. 





The Easter Bunny came and said hello to everyone, then picked his favourite egg design, by Eli. (Pictured below!)




 Lots of people came to meet the Easter Bunny in the conservatory in the house.

 



Come down to Beningbrough tomorrow or Monday to join in with the fun! (The trail might continue longer if we have any Eggheads left, but it’s best to ring up and check first, our number is 01904 472027).
