Frequently Asked Questions

How many Easter eggs do I need per child?
A good guideline is 8-12 eggs per child for a satisfying hunt. Younger children (toddlers) need fewer eggs in an easy area, while older kids enjoy more eggs hidden in challenging spots.
What should I put inside Easter eggs besides candy?
Popular alternatives include stickers, small toys, coins, temporary tattoos, erasers, bouncy balls, or slips of paper with fun activities. For older kids, consider small gift cards or money.
How big should my Easter egg hunt area be?
For toddlers, a small room or 200-400 sq ft of yard works. For ages 4-7, use 500-1,500 sq ft. For older kids, a larger yard of 1,500-3,000+ sq ft makes it more exciting.
