Prefer to gift an experience? Take them for a springtime afternoon tea with a dedicated kids’ menu at The Georgian – perfect for half-term fun. If you’re craving a more traditional Easter lunch, find a decadent Sunday roast to rival your mum’s with rooftop views at The Grill on Fifth or in the vibrant Dining Hall at The Grill.
Family fun without the sugar rush aftermath? Now that’s a treat. Whether its bonding time spent over spring-themed activities and games or discovering their new cuddly toy obsession or making breakfast feel extra special with themed crockery, these are gifts they’ll treasure.
Whether you’re celebrating their first Easter or updating their soft toy collection, a plush lamb is a timeless springtime gift.

Inspired by the British breakfast classic, this smiley egg-and-soldier duo is no egg-ception.
A charming designer Easter outfit brings as much joy to the parent as it does to the child. This spring, dress them in cheerful family party outfits, snug organic cotton pyjamas, or a wrap towel with bunny ears – there’s truly nothing cuter.
The host of your Easter celebration will likely receive plenty of chocolate eggs, spring blooms and Champagne – all excellent choices. But to stand out, give them something for the home. From vases and tableware to scented candles and diffusers for spring, these home accessories are sure to be a welcome surprise.
Spring is the perfect time to host an afternoon tea at home. This triple-tiered cake stand from Villari is handmade in Italy and has a dainty hand-painted butterfly design with 24ct gold detailing. It makes an exceptional addition to the tea party lover’s collection.
