It’s fun for everyone involved, from the adults hiding the eggs, the spectators, and of course the hunters! The reward of chocolate is really all kids need to get them excited, but how about levelling up your hunt this year by adding in some tricky clues?

You can do your hunt indoors, outdoors, or both, and make or adapt your clues to suit children of any age.
