How Does an Easter Egg Scavenger Hunt Work?
You can either have a traditional Easter egg hunt, or provide clues that lead children on a scavenger hunt around the house.
Provide clues that lead to different areas of the house and garden. Make them clever with riddles or puzzle pieces that take some thought. Put little treats at each stop in the scavenger hunt with one huge treasure at the end. Remember to keep it themed with the Easter bunny – like the bunny actually left the clues.
Concept The objective of an Easter egg scavenger hunt is to provide an exciting challenge to children of all ages. In some cases, even teenagers and grown-ups can participate. It differs from the traditional Easter egg hunt in that the participants do not just search for plain eggs or plastic eggs that contain candies or coins; they search for eggs containing clues to the prizes. Use different colored plastic eggs, and then mark the eggs with corresponding numbers. For example, if you have five clues, number each egg and then place a small piece of paper in each with clues leading to each egg until the participant finds the last egg. The last egg shall contain the final clue that tells the location of the prize. Create simpler clues for smaller children so that they will not have a difficult time finding the prizes. For teenagers and grown-ups, the tougher the clues, the more challenging and exciting the game. You can do this game either indoors or outdoors. Materials jQuery(document).
