Hide the eggs both indoors and outdoors, depending on the weather and the size of your space.

Easter Piñata

A piñata is always a hit at any party. You can make an Easter-themed piñata with paper mache and shape it like an Easter egg or a bunny. 

Fill it with small Easter-themed toys, candy or even miniature plastic eggs.

To make it more challenging for older kids, use a blindfold and spin them around before trying to hit the piñata.

Easter Bunny Photo Booth

Kids love taking photos, especially when they can dress up and use props. 

Create an Easter Bunny photo booth with a backdrop and some fun accessories such as bunny ears, noses, and tails. 

You can also include some spring-themed props such as stuffed animal bunnies, flowers, or butterflies. This is a great activity for both kids and adults, and it will provide some great photo memories for the day.
