Magic Kingdom Easter Egg Hunt

Last Friday,while we were watching the movie Horton Hears a Who, the "Easter Bunny" hid Easter eggs all over the playground for the children to find. Each child was able to search for three eggs to put into the Easter bag that they had decorated earlier in the week.

The children put on their coats and the classroom door opened - the hunt had begun! The children immediately ran toward the back of the playground to find their first of three eggs. Some of the children found three quickly, while others hide to hunt a bit harder.

As everyone knows, there is always one egg that is almost impossible to find. The entire class began looking for the final egg. The children searched in all of the places they imagined it could be hidden; along the fence, under the trees, the sandbox, and behind the barn. They were ready to give up when Ms. Andrea noticed something pink peeking out of the empty flowerpot right outside our classroom door. The children investigated and sure enough, it was the final Easter egg!

The Easter egg hunt had come to an end. It was time to head inside to enjoy a delicious lunch of chicken nuggets, cut-up veggies, fruit salad, and cookies. The children cannot wait until next year to see where the "Easter Bunny" will hide the eggs. Will they be able to find them all?
