    Easter Egg Hunt

    I would like to have an Easter Egg Hunt for my 2 1/2 year old grandson. I plan on buying some of those plastic eggs and putting quarters in some. There will also be some wrapped gifts hidden. But what else could I put in those eggs. I don't want to use alot of candy.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Maybe some small toys?
    No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously.

    Walmart and Target already have out tiny items for the plastic eggs. Another good place is your local drugstore, especially at the check out counter and also the same area at your grocery store.

    Re: Easter Egg Hunt

    Is this a new way to do Easter Eggs? Buy plastic and fill them? Just curious I was raised and I did my kids this way. Real hard boiled eggs colored and I hid them for a egg hunt. I would always fix them a Easter Basket filled with candy and colored hard boiled eggs. I'm not knocking this just curious about it, I have never heard of doing it this way.

    We do the basket and color eggs but we started doing this last year at a friends house. It was alot of extra fun. The real eggs we hid in the house but the plastic ones outside.

    I've done little plastic eggs since the kids were babies. Filled em w/little choc eggs, jellybeans, goldfish, raisins, and stickers. Now that dh works for a wonderful company, the company puts on Egg Hunts for the kids ea yr. This year, I'll be volunteering at the event. Since dh isn't working that day . . . . he can sit w/the kids while I work it.

    To the op, if you're looking for other things to put in eggs, different stickers work real well.

    To bad I don't have any little ones around or grandkids sounds like it would be fun for them to have some little extras in the plastic eggs. Like little prizes in them. If the day ever comes that I have little ones around I will have to keep it in mind.
    Thanks everyone for taking the time to answer.

    me and my dh both come from big families. so we do plastic and boiled eggs. they have egg hunt with my side of the family, with his side of the family, one at home and then one at church almost forgot they have one at school too. so believe me we have to use both. we hide ALOT of eggs. in the hundreds. we get tired of all the eggs time easter is done. but the kids have a ball.
