We tend to go to a lot of seasonal events each year, and as we have explored, we’ve done a ton of different Easter Trails! As spring is full of nice flowers and better weather, taking advantage of the local Easter Trails in Essex and the surrounding areas can be a great way to get out and about with you and your family. Here are the best Easter Trails we’ve been too.
It is one of our yearly traditions to go to Alton Towers during the February half term. They have on this Pirate Takeover event, which has a limited area of the park open. There is a deal that allows you to book up a day at Splash Landings Hotel, the night over at the hotel, and then go to the park the next day (or the reverse of that, really it’s up to you).

[Ad- gifted product] As you probably know, Robin really loves reading. We are always going through new books as she spends quite some time reading in the evenings. Maya & Robobo is her newest finished book on her reading list! This book is about a young girl, seemingly her age, and robot who appears in her room, to learn from her. Robin is 7, turning 8 this year, and this book is designed for children age 7 to 12 years old. Maya & Robobo has a few touches towards real life situations that many children actually have experienced, especially around those ages.
