[Ad- gifted experience] After our Intergalactic Space Treasure Hunt, we were excited to check out the Easter Bunny Treasure Hunt, just in time for Easter. As Easter is a bit different this year, and nobody can really go out and host a giant Easter Egg Hunt, being able to do something a little different at home is very welcome. With appetences from the Easter Bunny themselves, it made for a really fun activity for younger children. Robin ended up inviting the neighbour, Sophie, over to enjoy the hunt together.
The Easter Bunny Treasure Hunt is pretty simple to set up – you just need to print off some clue points and hide them around your house. These clues come in two printing types – one that you could easily print or draw (which was what we picked) and a more high-quality version that could be printed out if you had the ink. Once these were all printed, we hid them around the house, making sure they were everywhere but still within site. Then, you let the Easter Bunny take it away.
Playing each video, you will learn the Easter Bunny Hop, sing along with the bunny, and get clues as to what hidden points children are meant to find. These clues are rhyming – and the Easter Bunny does say the answer to the question after a few seconds, which makes the game ideal for those who are younger and may not actually be able to solve the clues. Once they know the answer to the riddle, they can then run around the house looking for the right picture. Each of these pictures have a letter on them, spelling out a word puzzle. As these are videos, you can play them whenever you want – on Easter Day, during the Easter Holiday or save it for next year!
Cleverly, the Easter Bunny Treasure Hunt actually has you getting the letters in reverse order, and the Easter Bunny explains that you just need to reverse them, for those who do not know well how to read or spell. It’s all so well put together and thought out! We had questions like “did the Easter Bunny set this up?” and “When can we do another one?” which is always a good sign. These activities can take about 45 minutes and really tire little ones out – from the hopping games to the singing along, to the running around the house. Though, as parents, I do wish the words to the song were subtitled so we could sing along as they dance!
