A fun range of free Easter-themed activities, including an EGG-citing scavenger hunt, is to be hosted by IKEA at Milton Keynes.

In Sweden, children celebrate the start of ‘påsk’ (Easter) by painting eggs with pretty patterns and displaying them in their homes, so select IKEA stores are offering kids the chance to create their own ‘cracking’ seasonal ornaments this Easter.

Those looking to put their detective skills to the test can take part in the EGG-citing scavenger hunt, with children being challenged to discover the secret location of colourful Easter eggs hidden around store. Find all the eggs to crack the secret code and win a prize.

Customers can also make the most of IKEA’s delicious foodie savings at home, with the KAFFEREP cinnamon buns available for £2 instead of £2.75 until March 31. For even more fun, pick up IKEA’s much-loved VÅRKÄNSLA flat-pack chocolate bunny to build for yourself or gift to some-bunny special, while the individual-wrapped VÅRKÄNSLA milk chocolate and hazelnut eggs are great for the kids’ Easter egg hunt.

An IKEA spokesperson said: “We’re delighted to be hosting a series of fun, free activities for all the family as part of the IKEA’s Easter celebrations, to help customers enjoy an affordable day out to remember this spring.”
