Egg-Cellent Day

The Easter time celebration wouldn't be complete for us if it didn't include two traditional activities on the day before — an egg hunt and egg coloring. So, we took a road trip to RI for some pre-Easter day fun with grandkids and friend.


First came the backyard hunt. Each child has to find several eggs with their initials on which contained a prize. Other eggs had with no restrictions — finders, keepers. Each child bagged their bounty.

Opening the eggs commenced after the hunt was over. Prizes included games, puzzles and books as well as coins. Soon it was time for the main event of egg coloring. 

Grandson and granddaughter had their own techniques.

So did grandpa. 
The kids all had a good time too and produced some very colorful results.


Egg salad anyone? 
Hope that your pre-Easter 🐰🐣 traditions were fun too.

That looks like great family time. I see why the children are so pretty. They get it from their mother.
