Organize The Best Easter Egg Hunt Ever
We had lots of fun pulling together ideas for the Best Easter Egg Hunt Ever! Here are some of the cold hard facts of a good Easter Egg Hunt: -Plan on hiding at least a half dozen eggs per child to make it fun! -Make a map for yourself so you don’t lose any of your eggs that aren’t found the next day. -Some eggs need to be easier to find for the little kids, and some much more difficult for the older children. -For little ones two and under, carpet a smaller area with dozens of eggs. -School-age children love a challenge, so get creative and use a ladder when hiding their eggs! -Everyone should get a prize. This can be chocolates, pencils, or cool cash or coins! (We loved counting and comparing who got more!) Most of all – have fun with the children. I have good childhood Easter memories, from dress coats, white gloves and new Mary Jane’s, to Easter Sunday Brunch and Easter Egg Hunts. It was a great and I’ll remember it forever. Happy Spring!
