16 ways families can celebrate Easter holidays on a tight budget

The school holidays over Easter can be a tricky time for parents as they try to stick to a household budget without stopping their children from enjoying the time away from the classroom, especially if they are preparing for exams next month. Energy bills are also expected to go up over the school break, due to the increased amount of hours spent at home, plugged into electronics, watching TV or playing video games.

But, it’s also worthwhile remembering that we’re now officially in springtime, which should mean milder weather with warmer temperatures and a lot more daylight, so spending time outdoors is a must, whether that’s in the garden, a day away or a trip to the local park.

Many families will be looking for ways to save money this Easter and the team at Choosewisely.co.uk have rounded up 16 ways to have a great time without burning a hole in your wallet.
