Parents race to Lidl for middle aisle bargains to entertain the kids this Easter – including a garden buy with TWO uses
IT can be hard to keep the kids entertained over the Easter holidays.
Once the egg hunt is done, and they're fed up with chocolate, they'll be looking for the next thing to do.
But one mum has found the perfect activity to keep little ones busy - and to encourage other parents to nab one too.
Mother-of-three Jade showed her partner setting up the wooden sandpit, which comes with a cover and "water wall", from Lidl.
The clever design features an entertaining maze for the water to flow through, before it's collected at the bottom in a tub to stop it from getting into the sand.
Meanwhile, the sandpit itself also has a little kitchen area, with pans, for the kids to play with as well.

"What a bargain!" Jade captioned her video.
"£29.74 with a Lidl card, and what an amazing 2 in 1 activity for the kids!
"I can’t wait for them to try it out."
"So much fun!" Lidl replied in the comments section.

"And such a good price too!" Jade responded.
"Gutted, just spent £80 on one from Argos and this is miles better!!!" another wrote.
"I wanted to get this and my partner said no!!! I'm even angrier at him now," a third raged.
"I never listen when mine tells me no and that’s why we end up with so much stuff that no one ever uses," Jade laughed.
"Had this for two days and my little ones have been obsessed," someone else said.
"I actually had a brew in peace!"
"Omg I’m going to buy one!!!!" another grinned.
"Bought this for my little one for Easter," someone else wrote.
Why do Aldi and Lidl have such fast checkouts
IF you’ve ever shopped in Aldi or Lidl then you’ll probably have experienced its ultra-fast checkout staff.
Aldi’s speedy reputation is no mistake, in fact, the supermarket claims that its tills are 40 per cent quicker than rivals.
It’s all part of Aldi’s plan to be as efficient as possible - and this, the budget shop claims, helps keep costs low for shoppers.
Efficient barcodes on packaging means staff are able to scan items as quickly as possible, with the majority of products having multiple barcodes to speed up the process.
It also uses “shelf-ready” packaging which keeps costs low when it comes to replenishing stock.
"This looks fab! Off to Lidl I go!" another admitted.
The sandpit is just one of the products on offer in the middle of Lidl this week.
