Fed up with the fun being over in three minutes flat? Here are five unique egg hunts to try!
Who doesn’t like shopping? Hide ‘Bunny Munny’ in several of the plastic eggs to buy things at the “Bunny Emporium”. Pick up several fun Easter trinkets at your local discount store or things that appeal to your children (toys, movies, books). Price them at different price points and have your children “shop” with their money.
Colour hunt: Assign hunters a particular colour/s to find on their hunt. This is especially good when hunting with mixed ages, as it allows the younger children a chance to find equal amount of eggs.
Flashlight Hunt: Put together your hunt the night before Easter. Using flashlights and glow-in-the-dark paint on the eggs, kids will love to find their eggs at night!
Easter Egg Checklist: Give each hunter a list of what particular eggs they are supposed to find – “four yellow eggs, three purple eggs, and one golden egg” etc. This turns it into a true hunt and you will find the kids end up helping each other out.
Scavenger hunt: Older kids love a good hunt. With a little bit of pre-work, this will be a favourite! Put clues to find each consecutive egg in the plastic eggs hidden throughout the entire house and let the ultimate find be their Easter Baskets.
Be creative with your clues (“Hop on over to the place which makes you go brrrr…”) and make your kids think!
The only drawback to having a fun Easter Egg Hunt? The kids will come to expect a creative hunt every year!
