Embrace the new season with fun days out at Teesside Park.

See an Easter family movie (The Super Mario Bros. Movie is out 7th April) at Showcase Cinema De Lux or go head to head at Hollywood Bowl. There are so many incredible places to eat at Teesside Park with the kids from Five Guys and Nando’s plus Burger King, KFC, Marks & Spencers Café, Asda Cafe, McDonald’s and Tim Hortons.

There are kids-eat-free lunch offers on throughout the school holidays plus student, Blue Light card and special seasonal discounts for breakfast, brunch and dinner across Teesside Park – make sure you visit our offers page for the latest deals and menu ideas.

It’s also the place to find special menus, cocktails and dining spots for evenings out with friends, too (cocktail masterclass at Fridays or wine and pasta and pizza at PizzaExpress).

2. The best Easter eggs and gifts for 2023

Whether you’re searching for Harry Potter, Marvel superheroes or Paw Patrol eggs or need dairy-free, vegan, diabetic-friendly or luxury creations, Teesside Park’s stores including WH Smith and Poundland have you covered.

Marks & Spencer has a fun chocolate range for every budget including new designs such as Curly the Puppy, Chocosaurus Rex and Colin The Caterpillar egg hunt buckets plus bottles of Prosecco, Easter hampers and flower bouquets for grown-ups.

Hotel Chocolat’s new range includes cute chocolate Pen Pals and bunnies, filled eggs and the Velvetiser hot chocolate gift and Holland & Barrett is the place to find alternative eggs and boxes (see their vegan egg round up here).

Greggs will be serving up original ideas for Easter and, for sugar-free alternative gifting, find toys and books at Asda Living, TK Maxx, The Works and WH Smith.

3. Easter crafting and egg hunts

Make your own at-home egg hunts, create Easter bonnets and baskets, paint your own eggs, design cards with the kids and generally be inspired by craft ideas from Hobbycraft, Poundland, The Works and WH Smith (which has lots of creative books for every age).

4. Easter decorating

Bring spring to your home with Easter wreaths for your front door, uplifting bunting, beautiful tablescaping, flowers and decorations (get inspired with #easterdecor on Instagram). Head to Asda Living, TK Maxx, Marks & Spencer, ProCook and Next for fresh new takes on interior trends.

5. Spring wardrobes and beauty refreshes for Easter

Give your spring wardrobe at 2023 refresh – unexpected metallics, zingy pastels (think limes and lilacs), low-rise jeans, oversize bucket bags and ballet-inspired shoe designs are going to be huge this year so lead the looks with Marks & Spencer, Next, TK Maxx, New Look and River Island and accessories from Market Cross Jewellers and Pandora.

There are also really cute kids’ creations (who can resist a bunny-eared cardigan for babies) at Mamas & Papas, Marks & Spencer, Next and TK Maxx.

Upgrade your beauty bag in this season’s colour-popping bright lip and nail shades or invest in 2023’s multitasking skin products at Boots and Superdrug.
