Egg Decoration Station
Set up a creative corner where guests can paint, dye, or decorate eggs with stickers, glitter, and markers. This is perfect for kids and adults alike!
Turn it into a competition where the best decorated egg wins some chocolate.
Bunny Sack Race
A fun twist on the classic sack race – have participants hop like bunnies to the finish line in sacks or tied sheets. Award prizes for the fastest racers!
Easter Piñata Smash
Get a giant Easter egg or bunny-shaped piñata filled with chocolates and candies. Let kids (or even adults) take turns smashing it for a sweet reward!
Pinata are available to buy online or in most supermarkets. The stereotypical rainbow unicorn pinata is suitable and easy to find. You may need to purchase appropriate sweets to fill it with.
Easter Cookie Decorating
Bake or buy plain cookies shaped like eggs, bunnies, or chicks. Provide icing, sprinkles, and toppings so guests can decorate and take home their delicious creations.
Perhaps the best cookie decorator gets to eat the rest?!
Golden Egg Challenge
Hide a special golden egg with a big prize inside (gift card, toy, or cash). The one who finds it wins! This adds an exciting competitive element to the Easter egg hunt.
Easter-Themed Photo Booth
Set up a cute Easter backdrop with props like bunny ears, oversized eggs, and funny signs. Guests can take adorable pictures to remember the day.
Egg and Spoon Relay Race
A classic and hilarious game! Participants must balance an egg on a spoon while racing to the finish line. Make it more challenging by adding obstacles.
Carrot Toss Game
Create a game where players toss small plush or plastic carrots into baskets from a distance. The person who lands the most wins a prize!
Pin the Tail on the Bunny
A fun twist on “Pin the Tail on the Donkey” – blindfolded players try to stick a fluffy cotton tail on a large bunny poster.
