In today's article we have put together great and funny Easter games for groups that guarantee a high fun factor and will definitely attract the neighborhood children.
1. Easter games with many variations: Go on an egg hunt
The Easter egg hunt is certainly the most popular among young and old alikemost popular gameat Easter. Our first suggestion for Easter games for children is about hiding Easter eggs for the children to then look for. When organizing an egg hunt, you need to take into account the age of the children. If you have small children, you must either give them a head start or let them play with adults.
So that theKindergarten and primary school childrenare equal in the game, it would also make sense to assign each individual player a color. Whoever finds the eggs in their color first wins the game. If you want, you can also hide golden eggs that will give players money or gift vouchers as a special prize. Older children enjoy hiding eggs as much as the egg hunt itself. If there are several children present, you can divide them into teams and let them take turns playing hide and seek eggs.
2. Skill is required – the egg run
Would you like to take part in the fun games? An excellent way to do this is with the next classic and great game, the egg run. First, the players are divided into two teams and then each team is divided into two more groups, for point A and point B. The aim here is to balance an egg on a spoon and get it to its destination safely and quickly. There the egg is passed over to the next player, who brings it back to the next participant. If an egg falls, the person has to go back to where they started. It is best to use hard-boiled or blown eggs. If you want to sacrifice raw eggs for the outdoor version, the person who drops the Easter egg must go back to the starting point and get another egg. The team whose relay reaches the finish line first wins. If you want to increase the level of difficulty, you can make the race track run over stairs or include a slalom run as a rule of the game.
3. Roll Easter eggs
Easter games for children, such as the varied egg rolling, quickly become onepopular Easter traditionat home. Each child receives a hard-boiled Easter egg. The goal is to transfer the egg from the start line to the finish line by rolling. Children can do this in several ways. First mark the start and end points. The first option would be to roll the eggs along the track using a spoon. Another popular variation would be to push the colorful eggs forward with your feet, making sure the eggshell does not break.
The game becomes a little more difficult and quite fun when the children are instructed to stand on all fours and push the Easter eggs to the target with their noses. The children can roll eggs either outside in the fresh spring air or inside, provided there is enough space.
4. The wolf and the Easter eggs
Our next suggestion for Easter games for children is called “The Wolf and the Eggs”. Elementary school children can take part in this because this game requires you to be able to spell. First, the children each take an egg and determine its color. The children face the wolf with the Easter eggs, who then begins to guess the colors. Once they have guessed a color, each player has to step back, spell out the color and run a predetermined route before returning to the other players. The player must place the Easter egg in the basket, choose a new Easter egg and continue playing. If the wolf touches the Easter egg before it lands in the basket, that player becomes a wolf.This great outdoor children's gamecan be played not only at Easter but also at any time of the year.
5. Throwing Easter eggs for children and parents
This game is preferably played outside with raw Easter eggs. As its name suggests, the Easter game can be a messy but super fun affair. It's best to have the children wear old clothes, or you can quickly help them make protective clothing out of garbage bags. You place two players face to face, with them standing about a step apart. An ideal play tandem is a child and an adult. You throw the raw egg to your partner, who then has to catch it, of course without breaking it. If the Easter egg falls to the floor, that couple is eliminated. After each successful catch, the players have to take a step back, so that the distance between the players increases and the catch becomes more difficult. The team that has an intact Easter egg left at the end wins.
6. Easter Egg Treasure Hunt
Creativity is very important in the next Easter game we have chosen for you. The game “Easter Egg Treasure Hunt” also requires a certain amount of preparation, but it is incredibly fun. One child is appointed as the person in charge and has to create several clues for the other participants, which will ultimately lead the players step by step to the treasure. The person in charge of the game has to write the individual clues on pieces of paper and make them as interesting as possible, but also make the search a little more difficult.
Clues in rhymes or other creatively worded instructions do thisEaster game for childrenreally fun and exciting. The pieces of paper are then folded together and placed in a plastic egg. A beautifully decorated box will then be the treasure chest. You can set the price to your heart's content. Small treats and toys, for example, are sure to be well received.
7. Steal Easter eggs
This game requires two teams and a referee. All team members must wear numbers so that each team has the same numbers. The teams stand opposite each other at a sufficient distance and a plastic Easter egg is placed in the middle between the teams. The referee calls out a random number and the two players with that number make their way to the Easter egg. The goal of this strategic game is to pick up the egg and return to its place without being touched by the other player.
If a player succeeds in this difficult task, his team gets a point. If the player is touched, the other team gets a point. The first person to collect ten points wins the game. Please note that a player can only be touched if he has already picked up the Easter egg. Strategic thinking is required here. Maybe it's better to wait for your opponent to pick up the egg?

Take a hard-boiled egg or a plastic egg and fill it with candy for extra weight and seal it well with a piece of tape. The children sit or stand in a circle. As soon as the music starts, “the hot boiled egg” is passed around from player to player. When the music goes out, the child who is currently holding the egg is eliminated. The game continues until only a single person remains, who is then the winner.

For this Easter game for children you need three or six gymnastic rings, which you place on the floor in the shape of a triangle or a pyramid. Determine a score for each ring. The furthest ring has the highest point value. Distribute chocolate Easter eggs among the players and set a throwing line from which the delicious Easter treats will be thrown. The aim of the game is for the thrown Easter eggs to land within a ring. Schoolchildren can then add up the score themselves. The child who got the most points wins.
