The Easter egg hunt is a classic tradition but there's nothing wrong with switching it up once in awhile! So why not give your family's egg hunt a clever new twist this year?
Here's a few of our favorite fun ideas:
Easter Coupon Egg Hunt
Instead of hiding jellybeans in the egg, try creating homemade coupons and stuffing it with those instead. The personalized coupons might be for a little extra TV time, an extra bedtime story, or a treat. It's a great alternative to sugary candies!

I love Easter - maybe because I was born on Easter Sunday. I also have great childhood memories of fun Easter egg hunts at my grandparents’ house with my brothers and cousins.
Easter means that spring has come and kids get to put aside their winter clothing and wear floral print dresses and smart-looking suits. If the weather is nice, they can play outside without heavy coats for the first time in months.
Easter is also one of the times during the year when children get showered with candy and sweets. But if you want to make the holiday extra-special, give your kids some fun activities by planning some great games for them to play.
Decorating your home for Easter is easy with fresh and colorful spring arrangements. These Easter flower arrangements are ideal to decorate your home for an Easter celebration, or to simply enjoy throughout the spring, making the most of the early blooms of the season.
Integrate your own family traditions into these Easter flower arrangements to make them even more meaningful for your family. You may even be able to collect the materials for this arrangement around your home and yard!
