At Thanksgiving you try to catch a turkey, but usually all you get is some turkey droppings and feathers.
At Christmas time, Magic Elves wreak havoc on your Happy Home with all kinds of mischief.
St. Patrick’s Day brings those sneaky leprechauns who like to mess things up and leave green glitter every where.
So what does the Easter Bunny do besides bring delicious baskets?
How do you know that he really came?

Happy Easter Bunny-ing! 🙂
I love these ideas!!! That tray of flour by the door is GENIUS! I’m definitely doing that this year. Can’t wait!
This is a cute idea, but I wonder…Do you ever feel like the elves, leprechauns, turkey, bunny, etc. ever overwhelm or overshadow the real meaning of the various holidays? I just think sometimes we get so wrapped up in celebrating to such an extent that our children might mistake the reason we are celebrating the holiday.
Just a random thought that is probably too serious for 8:40 in the morning 🙂
Courtney, I totally agree. You have to strike a balance between the magical stuff and the real meaning of these special days. I think bunnies and jellybean trails are so much fun for our kids to enjoy, but then I always make a greater effort to bring it back to the Lord. Plus, the ideas on this website are not meant for one Happy Home to attempt to do every single one, so it helps if you remember that, because that, indeed, would overwhelm anyone! You will find lots more posts in the future about ways you can encourage your Happy Buddies to focus on Jesus in the midst of the Egg-stravaganza. I hope you’ll stay tuned! And it’s wonderful that your thoughts are pro-active in ushering your Happy Buddies toward Him. That is truly how we have Happy Homes at all!
Darling ideas!
OMG!!! that is so cute!! hehe! oh hey what about April fool for tomorrow? winks
Hey Katey! Here are some of my top fave April Fool’s Day ideas… https://happyhomefairy.com/2011/03/25/april-fools-day-fun/ Have fun!!!
Adorable! This is such a cute idea! Your series has really been making em smile, I lppk forward to me e-mail updates just to see what’s next! 🙂 Great work!
On a different note – I agree with Courtney (& you). It is important to find that balance. I believe in letting my girls have fun with the holidays (joyful childhood memories in the making) but I also make sure I instill in them the reason for the holiday.
I believe that as long as they know the meaning for it all – there is nothing harmful in letting them enjoy the rest. 🙂
