Where to Hunt Easter Eggs
New York is a great place for kids during Easter. The plethora of parks in every borough host Easter egg hunts and festivities. Here is my short list of egg hunts:
Eggcellent Easter Egg Hunt | South Street Seaport (map) | Saturday, March 22, Noon-4pm This Trinity Church-sponsored egg hunt will also have games, crafts, live music, and snacks. Free
Spring Fling Egg Hunt | Brooklyn Bridge Park (map) | Saturday, March 22, 11am-2pm Over 15,000 multi-colored, candy-filled eggs will be hidden across the city section of Brooklyn Bridge Park and the adjoining Empire-Fulton Ferry State Park. There will be separate hunting areas for older and younger children and special musical guest, high-energy kid rock band AudraRox. Free
Prospect Park Egg-O-Rama | Prospect Park, Brooklyn (map) | Saturday, March 22, Noon-4pm Get an ‘egg-ucation’ about eggs. Learn where eggs come from and what role they play in a bird’s life then stay for fun, games, magic, face painting, the bunny hop, and special treats. Free
