This weekend there will be hundreds of of egg hunts going on be it something small in your own back garden or larger organised events.
This year we decided to go along to Limpsfield Chart in Surrey to join in with a hunt that has been organised by George And The Giant Pledge, a charity set up to raise funds for The Royal Marsden Hospital in aid of a very special little boy called George who is currently fighting a primitive neuro ectodermal tumour.
The hospital has been of great support to him and his family and I know through personal experience with my own Mother and Aunt the service they offer is invaluable to so many people.
We have visited the Ridland Lane National Trust area many times to seek out all of the little houses that have been lovingly placed around the woods so I knew the children would love a visit to take part in an Easter activity.
The woods had been adorned with bunting and balloons and all the volunteers had really got into the spirit of things.
The hunt was £3 to take part in and it is being run on a first come, first served basis.
The children are given a map of the woods with a list of all the houses that they needed to find and stamp to say they had found each one.
They ran round at top speed filling in their sheets, hiding in dens, climbing trees and swinging on the huge swing.
Worn out and sheets completed we made our way back to claim our prizes and have their faces painted.
The hunt is running from 10-4 on the 16th and 17th April and as I said works on a first come first served basis.
If you are looking for a hunt this weekend I would highly recommend this fabulous hunt for a fantastic cause or if you would like to find out a little more about George And The Giant Pledge then take a look HERE.
Thanks to my fabulous Mum and Dad we spent Easter weekend in the beautiful seaside town of Whistable. We only discovered this quaint little town last year and we are so happy that we did. Whistable has so much to offer, you will find something new everytime you visit. We started off our trip with a pit stop at our favourite little coffee shop which is nestled between the abundance of shops where you can pick up anything from beautiful one off clothing, wonderful gifts, fantastic children’s clothes, scrumptious food and so much more. 
Ready and refulled we made our way down to the harbour which is famous for it’s seafood, especially their delicious oysters. This is where we would be spending our weekend in a wonderfully converted fishermans hut right on the seafront. 
Once inside we were really taken back by the fabulous way they had been converted and the views from the bedroom were breathtaking. There was everything you could need for your stay there and we were really looking forward to everything we were going to be getting up to in the weekend ahead. So we quickly unpacked the car and set off to explore a little more! 
Unfortunately we weren’t blessed with great weather for the first day, but that didn’t stop up skimming stones across the water, collecting shells and watching all the splendid boats. 
We finished off our first day by grabbing some fish and chips and award winning doughts from the hut right outside where we were staying and cosying up for the night. 
The huts are run on a bed and breakfast basis so after a good nights sleep we took a short walk to the Hotel Continental where we were able to pick from a vast selection of breakfast items whist taking in another great sea view. 
We burnt off some calories by taking a long walk out on a great stretch of beach that cuts into the sea. From there we took another short walk to Whistable Castle which had very pretty grounds and a fab playground for the children. 
For our final evening we went to the Royal Native Oyster Stores which was by far the best fish resturant I have ever visited. The food was outstanding, the decor was beatiful, the staff were super friendly and catered for all our allergy needs and finally they were extremely child friendly which I was not expecting. The sun joined us for our final day so we made the most of it by having an Easter egg hunt on the beach and soaking up the sun whilst doing a spot of unsuccessful crabbing! 
Sorry to have bombarded you with so many photos but we really did have a fabulous weekend and I wanted to show you that England really does have some fantastic seaside towns that you can get away to and enjoy the simple things in life. 
I’ve had quite a few emails over the past week asking for advice on where to go for Easter egg hunts.
