In my family, we have a fire outside starting from 5 am and going all day. The feasting is more like grazing. Everyone enjoys eating Easter Bread and a spiral ham that we used for haphazard sandwiches. We have one big brunch together and it features ham, asparagus, salmon, Eggs Benedict, mimosas, strawberries, and strong coffee and tea. After that the schedule is open for egg hunts, indulging in the movies we had given up, walks or just spending time with each other.
One variation of the egg hunt is this one. Your participants pair up, one team member is blindfolded and allowed to pick up the eggs, and the other can guide and direct them with verbal instructions. All other egg hunt rules apply!
