Share this post with your neighbors.
For the days leading up to Easter, participating neighbors print out a picture (or 2) of an Easter egg (get your free printable below). Neighbors would then tape the egg pictures up to their window facing outside. When you’re out walking, count how many eggs you can find! This version of an egg hunt would give the kids a little something to do as they color and search for other eggs in the neighborhood. It is sort of like a neighborhood-wide scavenger hunt!
