The hard, cold and depressing parts of the Winter months are behind us now and we can look forward as Spring and the Summer months start to show their first signs. Before you know it the tulips and the daffodils will be taking over a roundabout near you and little lambs will be running around chasing their siblings in the fields.
More importantly for most of you, the supermarket shelves will be jam packed with chocolate eggs as Easter Sunday approaches. This year Easter Sunday is on the 8th of April so you can be sure the shelves will start filling up shortly.
Easter is another great opportunity to dress up in fantastic fancy dress costumes. Kids will love to see the Easter Bunny hopping around their garden and a great Easter fancy dress costume will make it one to remember for everyone.
Whether you are dressing up in Easter fancy dress to put a smile on your children’s faces or are simply going to a fancy dress party around the Easter period, we are going to suggest 5 of the very best Easter costumes to dress up in this year.
1.
We are going to start off with an amazing Easter Bunny costume. The Complete Easter Bunny Suit is a high quality outfit absolutely perfect for hosting an Easter egg hunt in. Watch your children go bonkers as they see the Easter Bunny in their own home. This costume includes a plush white zip-up jumpsuit with a multicoloured polka dot waistcoat and matching bow-tie, a headpiece with large ears and a happy face, mittens and shoe covers.

Up next is the Budget Chicken Costume, one of the first things you picture when you think of Easter is a little cute chick hatching from an egg, so why not dress as one? Well this chick is slightly bigger and possibly not quite as cute but one thing is for sure, it is a real cracker of an Easter fancy dress costume. This outfit includes a yellow and delightfully fluffy jumpsuit with Velcro fasteners, latex mask, hands and feet.
3.
We should never forget the reason we celebrate Easter. It is very easy to get caught up in all the chocolate eggs and bunny rabbits and forget it links back to the Bible and Jesus' resurrection. What better way is there to remind everyone than to turn up to a fancy dress party or event dressed as the big JC. The Jesus Fancy Dress Costume includes a long ivory and red robe, a wig, a beard and the all important thorn crown. We would suggest learning some wise words to share with others at the event but don't get too in to character and try to turn water into wine. Nearly all of the stories I have heard have ended in failure while attempting this particular miracle.

If our first Easter Bunny was a bit pricey then the Deluxe Easter Bunny makes an eggcellent alternative. This bunny at nearly half the price of bunny number 1 is still of great quality and includes a similar waistcoat and bow-tie with bright polka dots all over it. This Easter costume allows the wearer to show their face making it easier to wear for long periods of time but you won't be fooling quite so many kids that you are the real Easter Bunny, unless you know some particularly gullible ones of course.
5.
Finally the Bunny Costume is another fine example of an Easter Bunny and at only £35.27 you get a lot of costume for very little money. This Easter fancy dress costume comes with a white jumpsuit with a pink front, fluffy headpiece with fluffy ears and buck teeth and also pink covers for your hands and feet.
