It’s a lovely day here, spirits are high, and the Easter Bunny (aka my DH) has arrived! 90 village children are booked throughout the day to receive their egg. There are still lovely things happening - hope you all have a good holiday weekend!

Isn’t it lovely to see the charitable responses from people too?

Katek Sun 04-Apr-21 15:11:13

We had same thing happening teacheranne - ours was a free event and people kept asking “how much is it?”. Had to leave a basket out in the end as lots of donations were being handed in. This will also go to charity. I think people are so glad to see/be involved with something approaching normal thar they just want to show their appreciation in some way.

Your generosity has prompted generosity in others Teacheranne. ?
I hope the last 4 have been snapped up today. ? ?

Teacheranne Sun 04-Apr-21 01:06:56

Well, almost all the little chicks and rabbits have been adopted, I might leave the tray out again tomorrow to see if the last four find a home.

I was totally astonished today that two people insisted on posting some money through my letterbox for them. Both times I heard the rustling and went out to say that I don’t want paying but would donate the money to charity - total of £10! I was touched at their generosity.

You too Katek- very thoughtful and kind. The children will love it! ?

Teacheranne

I have made these chicks and rabbits as Easter decorations for people to help themselves - no charge! I live in a quiet area with most children walking with their parents so I hope there will be no messing about!

My notice says they are for the local children who have been badly affected by the lockdowns.

Amazing! What a lovely thing to do. ?

Jaffacake2 Fri 02-Apr-21 13:57:05

That's a lovely idea ! Hi Easter bunny have fun with all those excited kids !

grandmajet Fri 02-Apr-21 13:45:24

What a lovely gesture Katek, and teacheranne.
Are you sure that is your DH, Katek, it looks very much like the real Easter Bunny to me!

You are a wonderful, kind and thoughtful lady to make the chicks and rabbits Teacheranne
I’m sure they will find themselves in the care of many “little people” who live near you. A Happy Easter to you ?

I admire your DH being the Easter bunny to all those excited children Katek. They need things like this after the awful year we’ve had. . ....and who doesn’t believe in the Easter Bunny ? ? ?
I hope the sun shines for you all and you have a great day.
