we had the dynamic kids on a neighbourhood easter egg hunt, with a twist,
it was a math hunt
I wish I could say I had thought of this, but I didn't...
So usual stash of eggs was, er, stashed, but rather than sweeties, the eggs contained small slips of paper - each with a simple arithmetic problem (K-3 crowd).
The kids had to solve all the problems, and when they had done so they got to pick a couple of small easter candies from a bowl.
And they liked it.
