I have done these Indoor Easter hunt clues ever since I moved to Switzerland.
We moved here when my oldest was 3, we had a massive garden in Sydney with lots of trees and it was a wonderful garden for an Easter hunt.
When we moved to Zurich, we had a tiny apartment so and the weather wasn't always the best so I had to get creative!
When my kids were very young, they obviously couldn’t read any Easter clues, but I still wanted to make it fun and challenging. This is what I used to do and the kids LOVED IT!
.
Here is an idea for all the pre-readers/pre school/kindergarten aged kids….
Now this does take a bit of time and you will need a printer but its woth it and honestly your kids will love it, plus it will really help their memory recall!
.
Start by counting your treats and working out where best to hide them according to size and the options you have.
Next take photos of where you will hide the treats and then really zoom in, so that its quite unrecognisable but enough that your kids could work it out.
You can see here the original images and then I made them smaller to disguise what it is.
I cut mine into strips, but you do it however you want.
Print them all out and work out where you will start and end the hunt. Then place them around the house .
The first clue is a picture of a plant really zoomed in, so the kids have to really recall what it is, and where it is.
Then I hide the treats along with the next clue...
.
This next clue leads to some books..
and the next clue is a picture of some glasses....
and so on...
This is how I set us the first Easter Picture Clue:
So you can hide them the night before and then relax……likely, the downside is that they get up super early!! (you cant have it all ;-)
But you will be already prepared and ready to go when your little one is all excited to see what the easter bunny has left!
I hope you liked these tips, with a little planning and creativity,
you can make this Easter egg hunt a fun and memorable experience for your kids.
So why not give it a try and see how much fun you can have?
This was a picture of the kids plates in the draw and Isabella recognised the colours.
They were laughing because this was a 'trick' clue - it was a picture of their daddies belly, had he eaten them?!

You can have so much fun with this theme!
