Egg Roll

Set up a course using obstacles such as empty kitchen roll tubes, cones, or cardboard boxes. Kids roll plastic eggs through the course using brooms.

Easter Egg Bowling

Decorate 9 empty toilet roll tubes as carrots. Stand them up like bowling pins. Scrunch up a piece of tin foil to make a ball, then use this to knock over the carrots.

Bunny Hop Race

An easy one! Set up a start line and a finish line. Kids crouch down at the starting line and hop like a bunny to the finish line.

Egg & Spoon Race

Each player gets a spoon and a plastic egg or ping bong ball. Kids race to the finish line while balancing the egg on their spoon. Drop the egg and go back to the start!

Pin the Tail on the Bunny

Similar to Pin the Tail on the Donkey, blindfolded players try to place a cotton ball “tail” on a poster of a bunny.

Easter Bingo

Create bingo cards with Easter-themed images and play a game of bingo with family or friends.

Bunny Ears Ring Toss

Use bunny ear headbands as targets for a ring toss game.

Easter Charades

Act out Easter-related words and phrases for others to guess.

Easter Egg Memory Game

Hide pairs of plastic eggs filled with treats or small toys, and players take turns trying to find matching pairs.

Egg Relay Race

Divide players into teams and have them race to pass a plastic egg down a line using only spoons held in their mouths.
