Easter Basket Clues

• Fill plastic Easter eggs with clues. Each clue should lead you to the next egg. This will take some time and effort to coordinate. Give the hunter his first egg to start the hunt. The last clue should lead him to the Easter basket filled with goodies. If there is more than one hunter, color coordinate their clues so that each hunter is only hunting a specific colored plastic egg. If they find a different color, they must leave it alone and keep looking for their own.
  
  

Easter Basket Race

• Hunters must collect a certain amount of eggs, no more and no less. Eggs must be turned into the egg booth for the hunter to receive her Easter basket prize. By setting a certain number, this ensures that all hunters will collect the same amount of eggs, providing fairness to the sport. Gold eggs work well with this event, as the hunters will feel like they are "cashing" in their gold eggs for their prize.
  
  

Easter Basket Assignment

• Hide eggs of varying colors and assign a color to each child participating in the hunt. The child may only find and collect eggs that match his color assignment, leaving other colored eggs where they lay. Ensure that there are the same amount of eggs for each color, and tell the kids how many eggs they will be collecting. Once they find all of the eggs with their color, they return them to receive their Easter basket prize.
  
  

Easter Egg Scavenger Hunt

• Write names of small items on a piece of paper. The items should be able to fit into a plastic Easter egg; for example, a paper clip. Send the children on the hunt and explain that not only do they have to find a certain number of eggs, but they must also find the objects written on the paper inside the egg and turn them in with the eggs to redeem for their Easter basket prize.
