With only one grandchild we only do a little egg hunt here but our Churches both have egg hunts. My wife and I go to different churches. She is a Baptist and I am Catholic but both churches have egg hunts, hers on Holy Saturday and mine after Mass on Easter.

At both churches there is a mixture of eggs with some bringing plastic and some real. Both churches add in some plastic eggs with little prizes inside and at both churches there is at least one egg with money in it. Some of the eggs have a little toy and others have candy and at my Church there is the occasional obligatory Holy Medal or Crucifix.

Plastic eggs - something fun in all of them but 1 Rickisgirl, Although we haven't done it for a while, we used to have Easter egg hunts for the kids where we would plant a TON of plastic eggs around the yard. To make it fair for everyone, we wrote their initials on them in sharpie. That way the toddlers got the same amount as the older kids.

Anyone who got all of their eggs (usually around 20) was then able to help other people find theirs. Then we added one twist. We would always leave one egg completely empty.

We'd have everyone shake all their eggs until they found one that made no noise. Then we'd ask them to open it - and there was nothing inside. Then comes the perfect 'teachable' moment for a chance to discuss what Easter is all about.

"Not only is your EGG empty, but on the morning of Easter the TOMB where Christ was buried was also empty! Can anyone tell me why....?" That was NOT my idea, we got it from someone else, but I thought it was one of the coolest ways to tie all of the 'secular' aspects of easter (candy, egg hunts, bunnies) to the resurrection of Jesus! Q .

Both! When I was growing up, we always had a good time dying about a dozen eggs and decorating them. Then my parents would hide them on Easter morning along with lots of plastic eggs they'd filled with little candies--mostly Peeps and little Easter-themed chocolates.

The best Easter I remember, though, is the year that Mom decided to put together a scavenger hunt for the eggs. Instead of just hiding them randomly through the house or yard, she put together little clues for us to find one egg after the other. That way, the Easter egg hunt was more fun for my older siblings as well.

I'm sure other people have stories about this as well, but I remember finding one Easter egg in September one year. Moral of the story--write down where you hide them (especially the real eggs)! Momandreader's Recommendations Nesting Easter Eggs 5pc.
