Easter marks the perfect time to gather your children and their friends together for an egg hunt. It’s a super fun activity for everyone involved – and one that doesn’t even take that much planning on your behalf. With that in mind, here’s what you need to do.

Decide on a date

Be sure to take into account that some guests may be busy on days such as Good Friday and Easter Sunday. After all, these are typically family-oriented dates. Instead, you should make full use of the school holidays since most kids will have two full weeks off and their parents will be looking at filling the time during that period.

Send your invitations

Customised party invitations will really do the trick when it comes to building anticipation for the egg hunt. Easter Egg Hunt Invitations by Putty Print are especially playful, featuring bright colours and a cheeky bunny rabbit.

Eggs, eggs and more eggs

There’s no such thing as too many eggs! Just remember, they don’t all need to be made out of chocolate either. You can throw in real chicken ones or even plastic ones to mix things up a little bit. The guests will get a real thrill when they stumble upon a variety of eggs.

Hiding places

Make sure that you don’t settle for half-hearted hiding places. If you do, the hunt could come to an early finish – probably making it a dud in the eyes of everyone present. Instead think of where you can store things inside and outside. Whatever you do, be sure to make a note of where each one of the eggs are hidden!

Healthy snacks

Kids tend to eat a lot of chocolate around Easter. Therefore, you should make a point to provide snacks that are on the healthy side. Think sugar-free drinks, fruits and vegetables. You could even offer a calcium-heavy glass of milk that would go lovely with all the chocolate.

Happy hunting!

Your son or daughter will be jumping for joy when they find out that you’re throwing an egg hunt for Easter. To build some momentum from early on, be sure to order your party invitations from Putty Print.
