easter egg hunt clues
Instead of dropping eggs around the yard and letting everyone run, a clue hunt sends each child down a path to the basket. With the Easter theme, the opening says the Easter Bunny hid the eggs and the final message tells the hunter to open the basket. Among the 14 yard spots are the flower bed, the garden bench and the sandbox.
“Roses, daisies, tulips too, / red and yellow, pink and blue. / Look among the leaves and stems: / the clue is shining like gems.”
“Castles, tunnels, buckets, spades, / digging up the sand brigade. / Scoop a little with your hand: / a clue is buried in the sand.”
“I have four legs but I never walk, / I'm where you rest and sit and talk. / Look beneath my wooden seat: / a clue is there, all snug and neat.”
“🚪 Wipe your feet before you come in! Find the doormat.”
“Up I go and back I fly, / the wind is rushing, oh so high. / Check my chain or check my rope: / a clue is there. You'll find it, I hope.”
Choose 6 to 12 hiding spots, let the tool chain the order and print the cards. The first clue goes to the player, each later card is hidden at the previous spot and the last spot holds the treasure. With 55 ready-made spots at 3 original clues each, a set of 8 becomes 8 clue cards plus 1 final card, 9 cards in all.
Choose the Easter theme, the age level and a set of 6 or 8 clues, print the cards and hide each one at the previous spot. The last spot holds the basket with the final card. If you like, hide an egg near each card too.
Build one chain per child, each at the child's own age level: Little kids for the youngest, Kids for the middle and Teens for the oldest. Use different spots in every chain, as the 6-stops-per-child count above shows.
Plain paper goes soft in dew or rain, so put the outdoor cards in zip bags and hide everything last, on the morning of the game, rather than the night before.
Yes. Switch the filter to Indoors and the same Easter theme works, with 28 spots in the rooms. The basket goes at the last one, which can be a big place such as the sofa.
In the print dialog, turn off "Headers and footers" and keep the scale at 100% so the cards print cleanly.
