On Saturday Mason got to go to hunt eggs two different times!
P Graham Dunn hosts an Easter Egg Hunt for kids the Saturday before Easter. Also included in the morning fun was a petting zoo, crafts, and Veggie Tales Easter movie. Since daddy was working and it was a nice morning, I thought it would be fun to check it out. I wasn't too worried how many eggs Mason would pick up, but he did really well. It was a mad dash in his age group (0-3) to pick up eggs scattered all over the grass. Not much "hunting" to do, but we ended up with six and Mason surprised me by spotting and picking up the eggs and putting them in his basket.
After the egg hunting was done we went into the gallery to look around, see the crafts, and look at the newly hatched chicks.
Then it was back outside to the pond area. Mason loved it! We also checked out the lambs, goats, and calf in the petting zoo. Contrary to his face in the above picture, we had a fun time and enjoyed the morning. Mason especially enjoyed the egg treats - Tootsie Rolls!
After PGD we met daddy at home and hurried off to Kidron Park for the second egg hunt. Kidron Community Council hosts an Easter Egg Hunt for kids in the community. Since daddy is on council we made sure to be there (since he was supposed to help!). It was a beautiful afternoon and we had a great turnout.
The egg hunt for Mason's age group (1-3) was much the same as PGD - eggs scattered through the grass.
And a little more hidden for the older age group. The oldest group's eggs were hidden in the woods along the back ball field. I didn't get any pictures, but I think they found them all!
Sweet Gretta!
And they're off! The younger group needed lots of direction and help from the parents and grandparents.
After all the eggs were found everyone gathered back at the pavilion for pizza, chips, and punch. What a fun time! Thanks Kidron Community Council!
