by isleofman.com 22nd April 2011

If you are wondering what to do with the children over the bank holiday weekend, Manx National Heritage may have the answer.

From today (Good Friday), it's holding a number of Easter events at sites across the Island, including a daily treasure hunt in the grounds of Castle Rushen.

On Sunday there is a chance to meet farmyard friends in the garden at the Grove Rural Life Museum in Ramsey, including miniature horses and Loaghtan sheep and lambs.

And on Monday there is an Easter bonnet parade at Rushen Abbey and egg-rolling and bonnag competitions at Cregneash.

Howard Parkin is public services manager for MNH (play audio file):

All the events run from 11am until 4pm and you can visit storyofmann.com for more information.
