Egg Hunt in the Dark

We put a little twist on Easter egg hunting this year at the Smith household and had an egg hunt once the sun went down. We opted to hide the plastic eggs filled with candy instead of the real hard boiled ones for this hunt.  We hid the eggs in various places in the front yard then gave each kid a bucket, a flashlight and a specific colored egg with the instructions that they could only collect that color egg, no others. This was one of the best ideas, and kept it as a totally friendly excursion.

Sorry about the picture quality, they are a bit grainy because they were all taken with iPhones and then blown up here for the blog.  I have also included a few videos, you can't see anything but you can hear all the activity as it was happening.  Listen to them and see if you would agree that the adults had just as much fun as the kids, LOL!
