Do you remember the thrill of hunting for Easter eggs and sweets as a child?
Easter celebrations and games don’t have to be limited to toddlers and teens.
It is high time everyone got in on the fun.
Here are a few games that might add some fun to your celebration:
- Capture the Egg:
Get ready for a little friendly competition with this fun take on “Capture the Flag”. Divide all your players into two teams.
For this game you’ll need eight eggs and colour them in two different colours.
Have each team choose a colour and then line up their eggs on their end of the field.
Each team must try to capture the other team’s eggs and bring them to their side of the field without being tagged by a member of the opposing team.
If a player is tagged by an opponent, they are out. To win, a team must successfully capture all the other team’s eggs, or must have the last man standing.
Let the team members take turns in trying to capture their opponents’ eggs while others defend their own.
- Easter Egg Treasure Hunt:
For this one X marks the spot with this Easter-themed spin on treasure hunting.
Make an Easter basket filled with goodies, or purchase a pre-made basket.
Hide the basket somewhere and then write clues on pieces of paper that will help players locate the treasure.
The first to reach the basket wins the treasure.
- Easter Egg Decorating Station:
What Easter celebration would be complete without colourful eggs?
An egg decorating station with both hard-boiled eggs and tools is the perfect way to unleash your creativity.
Encourage your little artists to get inventive by providing a variety of art tools such as paints, brushes, glue, glitter, and traditional egg-dying kits.
Adults can get in on the fun by helping children make special patterns; add a little friendly competition by holding a vote on the best design.
- Easter Egg Rolling Race:
Let the good times roll with this fun relay race.
Start with a dozen (or more) hard-boiled eggs, one for each racer.
Mark off a straight race track with multiple lanes.
Each player begins by placing his or her egg at the starting line in his or her lane.
Each player then uses a wooden spoon to roll the egg down the lane and across the finish line.
The first egg to cross the finish line wins.
Don’t be afraid to get creative with your activities and entertainment this Easter.
Everyone can get in on the fun with these games, making the annual Easter event one that everyone looks forward to.
