Scavenger Hunt Clue Ideas

Easter is a time for enjoying your family and having fun. Setting up the traditional Easter egg hunt can become boring and routine if you do not spice things up a bit though! Here are some ideas for making the hunt more lively and fun with your family.

Make bunny rabbit footprints! Using colorful paper and a stencil, cut pieces of paper into bunny rabbit foot shapes. Leave the footprints in a trail that will lead the kids to various different prizes, or make the footprints clues themselves! Use the bunny footprints for writing clues as to where a prize can be found. To help you keep the clues appropriate for the age group of your kids, the software at RiddleMe.net can be used. This software also has tons of great ideas to help you customize your Easter egg hunt. The RiddleMe.net website can provide you with ideas as well, through their user submitted blogs and activity pages.

Another twist on the bunny footprint idea is to use paint – make sure it is safe (washes off) – and a stencil stamp to simulate bunny footprints on the ground outside. Use different colors to lead to different prizes or clues you have hidden before the hunt starts. The paint and stencil can usually be found in a craft store, and while you are there, you might see some additional items to make the hunt even more fun. See if you can find something to represent little tufts of bunny fur! This is especially exciting to the younger kids, as they will see this and know that they are on the right trail for finding the Easter Bunny’s hidden candy treasure. This fun and unique Easter egg hunt will be one for the whole family to enjoy and remember.
