As a parent, finding meaningful activities to bond with my daughter over has always been a priority. So, when Camilla Kongshavn posted about the beautiful Easter Magic e-book that she and her 4-year-old daughter created together, I had to make a day of it with my little girl. It felt like discovering a treasure trove of imagination waiting to be unlocked. Little did we know that diving into its pages would lead us on an unforgettable journey of creativity, laughter, and heartfelt moments.

From the moment we opened the e-storybook, we were captivated by its vibrant illustrations and engaging storyline. I had every intention of explaining the idea behind the book to my daughter since this was the first time we did anything like this together, but she jumped right into it before I even had a chance.

Together, my daughter and I embarked on an adventure where we became the authors of our tale, inspired by the enchanting world of Camilla, the bunnies and their woodland creatures, all paired beautifully to relaxing Celtic tunes.

Sitting side by side, we let our imaginations run wild. With each page, we added our unique touches, infusing the story with bits of our personalities and shared experiences. It was a collaborative process that not only sparked our creativity but also strengthened our bond as parent and child.

As we delved deeper into the story, I watched my daughter’s eyes light up with excitement and wonder. She eagerly contributed her ideas, coming up with things and pointing out images on the pages that I never would have noticed. Her imagination soared as she breathed life into the characters we created together. In those moments, I saw her confidence grow as she realized the power of her imagination and the joy of storytelling.

But our journey with Camilla’s Easter Magic e-book wasn’t just about crafting a narrative; it was about cherishing the precious moments we shared. From spontaneous bursts of laughter to quiet moments of reflection, each word we wrote and each illustration we drew became a testament to our love and connection.

The book was a catalyst for unforgettable, cherished memories. It brought us closer together, sparking our imagination and igniting our love for storytelling. And for that, I will be forever grateful.

So, to all the parents out there looking for a way to connect with their children, I highly recommend diving into the world of Camilla’s Easter Magic e-storybook. Who knows what magical adventures await you?

To get yourself an e-copy of the book, add Camilla on WeChat by scanning the QR code below. Each order is RMB 99, and the proceeds all go toward helping Camilla’s dream of one day owning her own bakery in Beijing come true.

“Camilla is a force of kindness and creativity in Beijing. For years we have seen her raise her daughter and grow her business, while also being available around-the-clock to lend both her time and talents to everyone in need in the most open manner. She’s one of the humblest humanitarians I know, and definitely the best baker — this campaign is a genius way that only she could come up with, to let us finally support her in both roles,” shares Erin Crocetti.

Camilla has given her heart and time to countless causes in Beijing to help others during their hour of need. And when the opportunity arises for us to be able to give back to a pillar of our community all while purchasing a genuinely well-thought-out product in return, what other reason do you need?

Easter Sunday is right around the corner and chocolate eggs and bunnies are popping up around the capital like, well, bunnies! We’ve selected a few top choices and will also show you how to search for all things Easter-related on local apps so you’ll be well-prepared for the upcoming festivities!

Comptoirs de France

Possibly the best-known bakery to expats in Beijing, Comptoirs always has something special for every holiday occasion, and Easter’s no different! This time they’ve got chocolate hens in medium (RMB 68) and large (RMB 158) sizes, chocolate rabbits in various poses (starting from RMB 68), and, of course, the classic chocolate eggs (from RMB 30), and lollipops (from RMB 19). If you prefer something a little less sweet, they’ve also got hot cross buns (RMB 68 for 6) and rabbit lemon cookies (RMB 25). Visit any of the 12 locations in Beijing or scan the QR code to order your Easter pastries now!

Venchi

You might have thought that this is an ice cream store just based on the giant ice cream cone decor from the outside, but this Italian franchise offers some of the fanciest chocolates in town. Opting for luxury over quantity, Venchi’s Easter eggs are almost palm-sized versions of their bestselling flavors – such as Nougatine (rich dark chocolate exterior with sweet crunchy nougat inside), Baciodidama (a pale pink exterior bellying the dark chocolate and biscuit center within) and Cremino (smooth white chocolate with hints of pistachio). Other treats include chocolate hens, chicks, and bunnies (in milk and dark chocolate). Prices start from RMB 100 and the products are flying off the shelves so you better hurry down to one of their four Chaoyang locations to get them quickly.

Venchi has outlets in Sanlitun Taikooli, China World Mall, Hopson One, and Indigo Mall.

Looking for options for Easter decorations? Search 复活节 Easter Sunday (Fùhuó jié) and 彩蛋 Easter egg (Cǎidàn) on Taobao, Meituan or any local app you shop on and you’ll find a multitude of options. We’ve picked a few to recommend based on user reviews and ratings.

These sticker decorations take the mess out of the fun of decorating Easter eggs!

Want a more sustainable option than cheap plastic eggs? These light metal Easter eggs are beautifully decorated and made to last a lifetime so you can reuse them year after year.

Tired of Easter eggs but still want an Easter craft? How about a bunny lantern instead?

Here’s to a super fun Easter for your family!

Easter is coming up on Apr 9, and while some of the most popular Easter brunch places in town are still finalizing their details and have yet to announce what they’ve got planned this year, others are close to being sold out! By the time Easter rolls around the weather is usually nice enough for some outdoor fun, and if past experience serves correct it’s one of those holidays where every family wants to go out so the best events will be booked early!

So plan ahead, and check out what’s already in store on Easter weekend.

The Peninsula Beijing and Their Annual Easter Events

I took my daughter to The Peninsula for their epic easter egg hunt when she was barely one year old and she had the time of her life! This year, The Peninsula and Peter Rabbit are collaborating for Easter to bring guests an experience that’s straight out of the storybooks. And like with all Peninsula Hotel events, they know what we parents truly, truly want – great photos to share with friends, family, and followers!

Their Peter Rabbit-themed afternoon tea is already available online, and the adorable friendship between a bunny and a bear is one that’ll bring back our fondest childhood memories.

As for their epic Easter egg hunt and activity class, you’ll need to book your spot ASAP! It’s not even April yet and most of their spots have already been sold out. It’s pricy, but it’s THAT good!

This year the kids will be making a Peter Rabbit Easter egg with the help of The Peninsula chefs, of course. Following their crafting session, they’ll head outside for the annual Easter egg hunt!
