Now that he's old enough, we took Daniel to an organized Easter Egg Hunt at Church of the Saviour.
There were a lot of children and the older ones were "experienced" egg hunters. By the time Daniel got into the room with the eggs, many were already gone. But, he knew what to do and ran quickly over to a small pile of eggs and picked one up.
He was very interested in opening it up and seeing how the plastic egg shell pieces worked. I told him to hurry and pick up the other two in the pile before someone else did! So, he found three eggs and was happy.
On the way home he ate a Hershey's kiss that had been in one of his eggs. What a mess! Fortunately, he didn't touch much and we were almost home.
On Sunday after church, we had our own egg hunt. I filled twenty plastic eggs with strawberries and hid them around the flower beds in the backyard.
He grabbed his bunny basket and headed out to find them. Once he opened the first egg and found a strawberry, he was quick to look for the others so he could fill his belly with berries. It's hard to hold a basket, a strawberry, and look for more eggs.
We also gave him a few things in his Easter basket including a soccer ball and a sticker book with airplanes.
Daniel loved everything.
