Plastic Easter Eggs Aren't Just for Jelly Beans Anymore - Create Some EGG-citement During Your Easter Egg Hunt This Year!
Easter is just a HOP, skip and a jump away! As my kids get older I realize that they are less impressed with the jelly beans they may find in their treasured plastic eggs. What does every good mom do with this knowledge? - think outside the egg. Don't get me wrong, they are happy to open the egg and eat the candy; however, I'm always the mom going for the BIG surprise. You know this mommy moment – the one that brings tears to your eyes because you know you brought that amazing element of egg-citement to your child's face.
As the kids get older, the eggs seem to multiple like bunnies. In a house that started out with probably a dozen hidden eggs, I'm embarrassed to say we've accumulated many many dozens of plastic eggs AND an Easter treasure hunt, complete with Easter clues leading the way to a big basket.
Here are a few egg-filling ideas to create more Easter magic in your home:
- A Personalized Letter from the Easter Bunny – how cute is that?
- Bunny Money – this clip art "money" is found in the eggs by the kids to be used to purchase items displayed on the "bunny table." The items are mainly cheap trinkets and items they would need. A few ideas might include a whoopee cushion, pool toys, a new swimsuit, a Frisbee, a pack of gum, movie tickets, and lottery tickets.
- Coupons/gift certificates – homemade or store bought. Older kids love a coupon to get out of completing a chore or staying up late. Teens love a gift card to their favorite clothing store, fast food chain or iTunes.
- Clues – the kids will be so excited to go on an Easter basket treasure hunt. Non-readers can have clues which are clip art images and older kids can have riddles guiding them to their next egg clue. The more egg clues the better!
- Movie tickets – who doesn't like a free movie pass?
- Easter Dessert - fill small containers full of ice cream toppings such as sprinkles, crushed cookies, marshmallows or chocolate chips. Place the small containers into large plastic eggs. All the ingredients can be used to make a yummy Easter ice cream sundae!
- Adult eggs – why not fill a few large eggs with trinkets for your spouse. Who said finding Easter eggs is only an activity for kids?
Remember, you only have one chance at giving your kids an amazing childhood.
