Easter Egg Hunt Tray
Bring the excitement of an Easter egg hunt indoors! Fill a tray with rice as the “grass,” then hide small plastic eggs throughout. Kids can dig, scoop, and hunt for eggs using spoons, cups, or tongs, practicing fine motor skills while having a blast. Once all the eggs are found, they can count, sort, or even open them for small surprises.
