This week – we’re all about non-traditional Easter egg hunts for kids.
As much as I loved the traditional chocolate egg search that my Mom and Dad did for my brother, sister and I as kids, I also love planning something a little extra for my 3 year old son, Onetime.
Maybe it’s because my son is an only child, or maybe it’s because I miss planning and teaching a classroom of kids, but sometimes it’s fun to go a little bit overboard!
And usually that little bit of extra time it takes to make an everyday moment extra-special – is worth it when I see the look of excitement and surprise on my son’s face.
With that in mind, I’ve collected 18 awesome non-traditional Easter egg hunts for you to peruse today. Some of these hunts incorporate the traditional chocolate egg hunt (see my Easter Bunny Clue Hunt, Crack the Code Hunt, and Easter Egg Hunt Map Reading).
Some of them are completely unique (check out the two glowing easter egg hunts and the Dinosaur Egg Hunt and Hatch).
I even have some educational hunts – because who says that kids can’t learn a bit while having fun?
Whatever tickles your fancy – I hope you find what you’re looking for – and that the kids do too this weekend!
