Just do them in your own yard or indoors

FWIW, my kids' first year they were old enough for an egg hunt was cold and rainy so we hid the eggs inside. 2nd year it was rainy again, so inside again. Once we did it twice, it was "tradition" so my teenagers still expect an indoor egg hunt.


During covid I did this indoor egg scavenger hunt (with clues, numbered eggs, etc.) that led in the end to their baskets. My kids loved it so much that that is what they have asked for in all the following years.

We’ve done the indoor egg hunt many times! Kids love it. They hide in their rooms and we hide eggs in the living room. Repeat and do family room. Repeat and do basement.
It’s a good solution.

I don't really think you can do this. Some parents would be pissed with their kids receiving candy. Or the kids would wonder why they didn't know about it or their bunny only left them a basket.

Have your egg hunt inside.

I think your idea sounds wonderful, OP. You are a good neighbor.

You could assign colors for each kid. That way they only find their color and not hog all the eggs.


That's how we do it. Eggs are empty, kids turn in their color and then pick their prize. No fighting that way.

I’d buy extra and put up a sign the day before that says egg hunt 1 pm.

I would just use the small lawn infront and behind my home and not use the community space. You really wanna worry about other kids and allergies and crazy parents?
