It’s time to plan your Easter party! Here’s what to do…
Rather than the same old Easter egg hunt, create a special scavenger hunt with themes of spring that could include baseball cards, seed packets, plastic flowers, dolls in summer outfits, bicycle accessories, funky sunglasses…whatever fun items to help ring in the warm weather. Hide your items, and write a fun little rhyming riddle about where each might be located and what it is. Your party guests can try to guess what each item is before they go looking—that’s more fun than just poking around for eggs!
But you still want eggs—hard-boil them and use them as place cards. Cut out strips of construction paper or cardboard (about 1″ x 5″). Form a circle, overlapping one end of the strip on top of the other, and glue or tape it to stay that way. Use this as an egg stand and place one at each table setting. Write your guests’ names on the eggs with crayon, then dye them with food coloring or egg dye.
If you have extra time and enough chutzpah, you can also decorate the eggs to resemble each guest. Your bald guests will be the easiest.
