BRING THE FAIR HOME FOR THE RELEASE!
Written by Carrefour Charlesbourg | February 16, 2023
Looking for inspiration to entertain the youngest this year during spring break? Don’t panic, we’ve thought of you! To help you make the most of this week off, we’ve put together a list of 5 activities to brighten up your days. Let yourself be inspired by our ideas for activities that are simple to carry out and bring the funfair to your home!
1. BRING OUT YOUR ARTISTIC SIDE
Get out the scissors, hot glue and pens: it’s arts and crafts time! And we’re not talking about simply cutting out colored cardboard, no no. Here is a tutorial for making a great game of “Chamboule tout” (literally “Turn upside down”).
Make your own “Chamboule-tout”: tins, a few sheets of card, some glue, two or three pens and you’re done.

2. EXPLORE YOUR CULINARY TALENTS
What could be more tempting than the sweets on offer at the funfair? Today, we invite you to get hands-on with your little ones and enjoy some delicious taffy apples together. Great memories and lots of fun to be had!

3. OUTDOOR FUN WITH A DIFFERENCE
The weather may not always be good during the spring break, but that’s no reason to stay indoors all week! If the weather permits, why not take the opportunity to take on challenges and compete outdoors?
Use food coloring to draw circles and squares in the snow. Invite your children to hit them with snowballs. For a variation, you can also have them throw snowballs as high as possible at a tree trunk. Finally, it doesn’t take much to have endless fun! Shops to find the products:
4. TRAVEL THROUGH BOOKS AND GAMES
Sharing a story or a moment of play with your parents often remains one of the most beautiful memories of childhood. We have put together a selection of games and books that will transport you directly to the funfair!
5. ORGANIZE A DAY OF MOVIES AT HOME
- Create or print tickets, the little ones will love to join in the fun.
- Prepare popcorn with butter or caramel for the braver ones.
6. MAKEUP AND COSTUME, THE RECIPE FOR HAPPINESS
Who said that dressing up was only for Halloween? Get out the paint brushes, make-up, the most improbable accessories and the most beautiful costumes and let your creativity run wild!
We’d better warn you, it’s highly likely that some dads will find themselves dressed up as a unicorn or a snow queen…
If you need a little help with the make-up, it’s this way:
