If you have young guests coming over for Easter, here is an easy three-step treasure hunt featuring bunny feet, Easter eggs and puzzle pieces!
I saw the bunny feet printable on this website: The Happy Home Fairy
Unfortunately the link from her post doesn't work, but we can get around that (see the "Details" section below).
Step 1: Hide the bunny feet inside or outside, then read them this clue:
Step 2: After they accomplish that, read the next clue and assign them a specific egg color to find. Inside will be custom puzzle pieces matched to their age. (Example: Older kid one is assigned blue eggs which may have more puzzle pieces. Younger kid two is assigned green with less puzzle pieces inside.)
Step 3: After everyone has found all of their eggs, read the last clue. They will each put their individual puzzle together to win their prize or basket.
DETAILS:
Bunny Feet
Simply hover over the bunny feet image on The Happy Home Fairy website and right-click your mouse to bring up the menu. Left click on copy. Then open Microsoft Word and right-click/paste. You can resize the feet as this point by selecting the image and stretching the box, but you may not need to. I printed 3 pages in color on cardstock. Cut out your feet while you are watching TV. :-)
Puzzles
Find cute pictures of the Easter Bunny on the internet, a different one for each child. I copied and pasted the images into Word, then resized them if necessary.
Print the pictures onto cardstock and cut them into puzzle pieces. For young children - simply make six pieces (one for each egg). Older kids can handle more (smaller) pieces. In this case, you would put multiple puzzle pieces in each egg. You can freehand the cuts or use a puzzle piece template similar to this one from the internet.
Prizes
You can give the kids whatever is traditional in your household. Easter baskets, candy, cute little gifts - whatever.
Happy Easter!
