Spring is in the air, and the Easter shop is open. Chocolate eggs, fluffy bunnies, spring flowers, and craft supplies — everything families need for an egg-citing Easter celebration.
In myplayshop’s Easter shop, your child sells seasonal favourites to happy customers. They ring up chocolate eggs, wrap bunny gifts, and handle all the money.
Why the Easter Shop Is Special
Like the Halloween shop, the Easter shop is a seasonal special with its own advantages:
Springtime excitement. Children look forward to Easter — the eggs, the hunts, the chocolate. The Easter shop taps into that anticipation.
Limited availability. Appearing in March and April, the shop feels like a treat in itself. “The Easter shop is back!” creates genuine enthusiasm.
Gift-buying practice. Easter is about giving — eggs for friends, presents for family. The shop mirrors real shopping experiences children have during this season.
Easter Shopping
A customer buying Easter supplies:
- Large chocolate egg: $6.00
- Bunny figure: $4.50
- Pack of mini eggs: $3.00
- Easter card: $1.50
- Total: $15.00
- Customer pays with: $20.00
- Change needed: $5.00
A quick purchase might be a single chocolate bunny for $3.50.
Springtime Money Skills
Gift budgeting. “I want to buy Easter eggs for four friends. How much will that cost?” This is real maths with a real purpose.
Moderate prices. Easter items range from small treats ($1–$3) to larger gifts ($8–$15), providing a comfortable challenge range.
Quantity thinking. Easter often involves buying multiples — “Six mini eggs for the egg hunt at $2 each.” This introduces multiplication concepts naturally.
