Decorating, coloring and hiding eggs goes back to the middle ages. The Egg Hunt is a fun activity for kids, usually held the day before Easter, or on Easter morning.

Here are some user submitted ideas on how to host your own Egg Hunt!

Easter Hunts and Games
Barnyard
Each child is given the name of an animal with three children having the same name. No one is allowed to tell another which animal he is. At the signal each child makes the noise of the animal that he has been given. The first group of three animals to find each other and sit down are the winners.

Spoon Walk
Put an egg (can also use a marshmallow) on a spoon and walking across an area; make an obstacle course if you like. Can also play where you have to pass it to a partner to go back to the beginning is fun. If the egg is dropped, you have to start over. Grown ups have to put the spoon in their mouths. You can also play hide and seek: all of the people who are hiding must balance an object on a spoon as they dash for a hiding spot. If it falls, that's where they have to hide.

Animal Relay
The players form two lines with equal numbers on each team. The first animal on each team is an animal, the second a different animal. On the word"go", the first person acts like the animal they represent, run, hop or crawl to a given place and back. The next person then acts like their animals and so on until one team is finished and sitting down. Use animals such as kangaroos, bunnies, dogs, cats etc... Bean Bag Relays - Walk/run/hop with bag on head/between knees/between feet. Leap Frog - Well...... You know.

Duck Races
Players line up on a start line. At the signal, they must all bend over and grasp their ankles. The first one to waddle to the finish line without letting go of their ankles, wins.

Adult fun too!
It's always fun to watch the kids hunt for Easter Eggs but have you ever seen a bunch of adults act like children. Or should I say have as much fun. My mom started this a few years back and boy do we ever look forward now more so for Easter. Except what the meaning really is. Anyway she puts money into the plastic eggs, anywhere from a couple dollars up to five or ten. Then her and dad go hide them. Let the adults go and watch them act as children again.
