Egg Hunt
Egg hunt is probably the most classic Easter game. You can set a designated area for hunting and hide colorful eggs all around. You can also create special eggs in different colors, which are worth more points than the regular ones, and the child who finds the most eggs or the special eggs wins a prize.
Pin the Tail on the Bunny
This game is a twist on the traditional “Pin the Tail on the Donkey” game. Draw a large bunny on a poster board and have the children take turns trying to pin a cotton ball or pom-pom tail on the bunny while blindfolded. The child who gets the tail closest to its original position wins.
Easter Egg Roll
This game is a traditional Easter game that can be played both indoors and outdoors. Create a starting line and a finishing line with masking tape. Provide each child with a colored egg. The children take turns rolling their eggs as fast as they can from the starting line to the finish line. The child who gets their egg across the finish line first wins.
Easter Egg Bowling
This is a fun way to use dyed eggs that are no longer suitable for eating. Set up a bowling alley using soft items like pillows or blankets, and use dyed eggs in place of the bowling ball. The children can take turns trying to knock down the “pins” with their Easter eggs. They can also try using different techniques like bouncing the egg or rolling it to get the best results.
Jelly Bean Guessing Game
Fill a jar with jelly beans and have the children guess how many jelly beans are in the jar. The child who guesses closest to the correct amount wins the jar of jelly beans.
Cotton Ball Bunny
For this game, divide the children into teams and provide each team with a bowl of cotton balls. On the other side of the room, place a large cardboard box with a bunny’s face cut out of it. The teams take turns throwing the cotton balls through the bunny’s mouth. The team that gets the most cotton balls through the bunny’s mouth wins.
Easter Word Scramble
Create a list of Easter-related words and scramble the letters. The children have to unscramble the words as quickly as they can. You can provide a small prize for the child who unscrambles the most words correctly.
