16 raring2go.co.uk Raring2go! THINGS TO DO Plan the Perfect Easter Egg Hunt Easter time calls for lots of Chocolate-y fun. Kids (and adults) love searching around for hidden treats so here are some hints and tips from Raring2go! to make this year’s hunt the best yet. If you have a big garden with lots of bushes and plants to hide eggs behind that’s great but make sure you have a contingency plan to move indoors if the weather is against you. Add a few extra treats for greedy grown-ups who want to tuck in! You could have some fun with your little ones ahead of the hunt by decorating a container with Easter pictures and stickers. Young children will want to enjoy their chocolate rewards as soon as they find them. If you are planning a big family lunch think about timings to make sure you don’t ruin their appetites ahead of the meal. Keep the sugar levels in check by including some non-chocolate Easter egg alternatives such as small Easter themed puzzles, colouring-in, small soft toys or wearable bunny ears. You could hide the prizes in plastic eggs to keep up the ‘egg’ theme. If toddlers or small children are involved, don’t hide the eggs too high, and also make sure that there is nothing potentially dangerous. Count the eggs before you hide them and keep track of how many have been found. A series of clues can make for a more ordered hunt as well as making the fun and entertainment last a little longer. Choose word based or picture clues to suit the ages of your children. Grandparents and other friends and family who can’t be there on the day could record short video clues.

Raring2go! FOR SALE 31 Could you be the next Editor of Raring2go! Bromsgrove and Redditch? Have you ever dreamed of running your own business, making your own decisions and taking control of your working life to fit around the needs of your family? After 15 amazing years, I am now looking for a new owner to take over the Bromsgrove and Redditch edition of Raring2go! magazine; a thriving and well respected local business. During my years as Editor, I’ve enjoyed discovering new places to visit with my family, reviewing shows at the theatre, and trying out new activities with my two children. By working for myself, I have been lucky enough to be there for the daily school run, attend sports days and nativities, and take time off around the school holidays. As my children are now older I feel it’s time to hang my hat up and start a new chapter. I would love for another local, passionate parent to enjoy the same experiences I have. However, it is important for me to find the right person to take care of my third ‘baby’, so I will continue to publish Raring2go! until I find that special person. While Raring2go! is a business where you work for yourself, you are part of a supportive franchise network, where there’s always someone on hand to give advice if you need it. No previous experience is necessary although an interest in the local community, an eye for detail and a tenacious attitude will certainly help. To buy a brand new franchise area starting from scratch would cost 12k+ This area has 15 years of trading which is reflected in the sale price. If you’re ready for a change in direction and have always dreamed of working for yourself, do get in touch with me for a chat: Call Lisa on 07989 110318 bromsgroveandredditch@raring2go.co.uk
