Easter games can be so much fun and a great way for kids (and adults!) to burn off some of that sugar from all those treats and candy!\u00a0 We’ve rounded up a list of our favorite Easter games that the whole family can enjoy.\u00a0 Think about making these games an annual tradition and your kids will look forward to Easter for more than just what the bunny brings!<\/p>\n

Easter Egg Hunt<\/strong><\/p>\n

An egg hunt is a classic Easter game and tons of fun! \u00a0This was always my favorite game as a kid. \u00a0Fill plastic eggs with treats and prizes and hide them around your house – inside or out.\u00a0 The kids will love hunting them down and discovering the treats inside.\u00a0 Check out step-by-step directions here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Jelly Bean Trail<\/strong><\/p>\n

Create a trail of jelly beans from your kid\u2019s room to their Easter basket.\u00a0 On Easter morning, kids follow the trail and find their basket waiting at the end!<\/p>\n

Easter Egg Roll<\/strong><\/p>\n

For 136 years now, the White House has hosted an Easter Egg Roll with upwards of 30,000 people.\u00a0 You can host your own egg rolling party and join in the fun too!<\/p>\n

Bunny\u2019s Eggs<\/strong><\/p>\n

Much like “Pin the Tail on the Donkey”, in this game kids are blindfolded and each take a turn at pinning their egg in the bunny\u2019s arms. \u00a0Who ever gets their egg closest to actually being in the arms is the winner.<\/p>\n

Egg Scramble<\/strong><\/p>\n

In this creative tag game, a course is set up and one person is the bunny and the rest of the players are various egg colors.\u00a0 If the bunny can tag the egg when its color is called, that person becomes the next bunny and the game continues. \u00a0Check out more about the Egg Scramble.<\/p>\n

The Bunny Hop<\/strong><\/p>\n

You may have seen the Bunny Hop at weddings and parties, but it can become a fun Easter tradition as well.\u00a0 Find some fun music and teach everyone the steps<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Duck Walk Race<\/strong><\/p>\n

If this game doesn\u2019t get everyone laughing, I don\u2019t know what will!\u00a0 Each player lines up at the starting line and squats down and grabs their ankles.\u00a0 The first person to waddle over the finish line<\/a> wins!<\/p>\n

The Egg and Spoon<\/strong><\/p>\n

Participants walk the course balancing an egg on their spoon with no help from their other hand. \u00a0The first person to make it to the finish line without dropping and breaking their egg wins! \u00a0More details here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
