The tradition of Easter bonnets dates back to the 19th century, when people would wear new hats at Easter to celebrate the arrival of spring and new beginnings. Over time, this blossomed into the wonderful, creative children’s bonnet parades we know and love today!
If you’re already making a bonnet ready for school, why not bring it along and join the fun at the Spring Fair? We’d love to see all your fantastic creations on parade!
Bring your friends and family for a day full of springtime cheer — we can’t wait to see you there!
