The Huffington Post Canada
Easter (April 20, 2014) just isn't the same without an egg hunt.
Every year, the Easter Bunny drops chocolate eggs in random places around people's homes and yards, and it's up to the kids to find them, wherever they may lie.
Kids are clever people, but there are always places you can hide eggs to ensure they spend a long time looking for them.
Here are some of the best places to hide Easter eggs.

Hide eggs under the first step on the stairs leading into your house. They'll NEVER think to look there.

Unplug the lamp, unscrew the bulb and put an egg there. And for goodness' sake, be SURE to unplug the lamp first.

Take an egg out of a carton, replace it with a chocolate egg and put it in the fridge. It may take your kids a while to even open the fridge to begin with.
Cut open an orange, peel it so that it comes off in one piece. Then hide an egg inside and leave it on the ground outside. This will teach your kids serious observational skills ... and to pick up litter.
