OVERVIEW: This Easter hunt game is not your traditional Easter Egg hunt.  It includes a variety of exciting activities for all ages to keep everyone involved.  There are team road challenges, mystery challenges, puzzles to solve, and of course a SCAVENGER HUNT loaded with surprises! It not only promotes fun and team building, it also gets you to discover your town or community and celebrate the holiday at the same time.


The Operation Egghead hunt was a huge hit!!! A few of the older ladies did not want to participate, but by the time they had decided on "bossy broads" for their team name it went great. Even had one mens team steal the kids car keys so they couldn't travel...but kids went and "stole" another vehicle for the event. Great fun was had by all & they are all looking forward to our next big hunt. Thanks, Tracy Brucker, Sibley, IL. More testimonials.


NUMBER OF TEAMS/PLAYERS: Unlimited. Recommended minimum per team: 3. Maximum: 8.

?What if you only have a few kids participating in this Easter hunt? Instead of dividing them into teams, you can keep them all on one team and have them race against the clock, giving the single team a time limit to complete each section of the hunt, report back to you and bribe you for the next section and so on until the hunt is complete.

AGE RANGE: This Easter hunt is an excellent event for families of all ages, kids/teens, youth groups, school groups, and even workplaces. 

LENGTH OF HUNT: About 3 hours from start to finish. *The more teams you have, the more time it will take. After the hunt, a 1-hour time slot is recommended to share team’s findings, tell their exciting stories, total the points and award the Great Easter Hunters.   There are other optional activities that could be added to extend the celebration of the holiday. 

PRE-HUNT PREP TIME: For up to 6 teams, you can put our scavenger hunts together in about 3 to 6 hours (includes shopping for supplies, reading the scavenger hunt and prepping/printing the materials). As you add teams, you'll need to add time to the pre-hunt prep.

THE WINNING TEAM: We include fun "Personal Award" award certificates. Participants can cast their votes for the most enthusiastic person, the person with the wackiest ideas and more. In addition we have the Great Hunt "Grand Prize" award to the team who scores the most points overall.


Thank so you much for the follow-up! We greatly enjoyed the scavenger hunt! We have set a tradition in our family to do easter egg hunts just for the adult-children. It is so amazing how much they all look forward to it (being kids again!). I include cash a prize offerings in the big-kid eggs along with a piece of candy and their competitive spirit as adults really gets them going. I wanted to branch out this year and include a scavenger hunt, just to see how they would respond. WOW! Thanks again for your product. It gave me an instant green light at the last minute for "something new." I will be looking to your site for "clue/treasure" hunts for next year. Being able to take your template and customize it on my own PC was especially helpful. Thanks again! Irene Trunnell, Fruitland, ID. More testimonials.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO BUY/PROVIDE: Team collection bags (plastic shopping bags or something fancier - your choice) and other inexpensive items (like plastic Easter eggs, arts & craft supplies, pens, clipboards and prizes). We also suggest that one team member from each team brings their digital camera. We'll let you know exactly what you need to get in our handy facilitators' guide that comes with this scavenger hunt.

EXAMPLES: 

As you can see from what's included (see above), this game has several fun challenge categories. We also offer additional options and suggestions that will help you adapt this hunt to best suit your needs. Add to that it's completely editable - take out what you can't use or adapt the challenges to your particular party or child.

Road Challenge Example: Go to the restaurant closest to our party location and find these answers: (there are a series of 5 questions they must answer, each correct answer is worth 100 points; they must also be sure to go to the correct restaurant!). There are 6 additional road challenges including one section that is all in riddle form. NOTE: We provide alternative suggestions if driving or leaving the premises is not possible. 

The Scavenger Hunt Collections List Examples (the editable list contains over 70 items):

  • a recipe that uses 4 eggs
  • a dictionary
  • an egg poacher

The Puzzle Challenge is a series of words the teams must unscramble to answer a riddle. Bonus points to the team that brings back the item in the riddle.
