You can comply with the current social distancing restrictions imposed by the Australian government and still enjoy one of the most cherished post-Lent traditions – the Easter egg hunt- with this clever neighbourhood hunt.

Similar to the popular Going on a Bear Hunt idea, local communities are banding together to encourage kids to print out eggs, colour them brightly, and display them in their windows.

But, just because families are planning quieter weekends at home with family, it doesn’t mean it can’t be packed with fun experiences for the little ones!

A social-distanced Easter egg hunts mean that kids can both hunt for treats from the safety of the street, while friends and family get involved with them through displaying the Easter-themed artworks.
