Think Outside the Egg: 10 Alternative Hunts for Easter and Beyond

You know they always have their phones, why not use them! If your older kids suddenly become too cool for an Easter egg hunt, try adding a little tech to the tradition with this clever idea from Mommy Poppins. Hide an egg, then snap a close-up photo that reveals just a tiny bit of the surroundings and text it to your kids as their first clue. Once they track down that egg, send another close-up image pointing them toward the next hiding spot. It’s a simple twist that keeps tweens and teens engaged, and proves that even big kids can’t resist the thrill of the hunt.
