Outdoor Easter Egg Hunts

One of the most classic – and fun – Easter activities is the Easter egg hunt. If you’re planning an Easter egg hunt for your kids (or even for adults!) there are a few things to keep in mind to make sure it’s a success.

First, decide on the type of eggs you’ll be using. Will they be real eggs that need to be refrigerated or plastic eggs that can be filled with candy or prizes? If you’re using real eggs, hard-boiled eggs are the best choice so they don’t break during the hunt.

Next, decide where you’ll hide the eggs. If you’re hiding them inside, make sure to put them in places that are safe for kids (and pets) to reach. If you’re hiding them outdoors, make sure to choose a spot that’s not too difficult to find – but also not too easy. A good rule of thumb is to hide most eggs in plain sight like among some bushes or in a tree.

Finally, create a list of clues or a map that will help the hunters find all of the hidden eggs. This is especially helpful if you’re hiding the eggs in multiple rooms or outside in a large area.

With these tips in mind, you’re ready to plan an Easter egg hunt that everyone will enjoy!
