Do you do it with real eggs decorated or do you fill plastic eggs?

Depending on if we're at my mom's house or my mother-in-law's house ... real eggs at my mom's house, plastic eggs at his mom's house. I love decorating eggs! But, I also enjoy the simplicity of plastic eggs and filling them with candy! Either way works for me if they come with CANDY! :)

When I was young, we always coloured eggs. We had those to eat over the next couple days. For our home hunt my parents would hide chocolate eggs around the house, but it was just for me and my sister. We did a little hunt for my boys when they were little, and we used chocolate. At the church where I grew up, they had a children's movie on Good Friday afternoon while the pastor hid the eggs around the building or inside it if it was raining. When the movie was done, the kids would hunt. There was usually a large chocolate rabbit prize and maybe some shopping certificates for the local record store. (YAH, RECORD STORE, I SAID.)

my mom does an egg hunt for all the grandkids/great grandkids, which run in ages 2 months old to 28 years of age. now for the younger ones 9 and under get plastic filled eggs with candy and she does about 200 hundred of them. and for the 10 and up kids they get real decorated eggs. trust me I just colored 90 eggs. my sister is doing the other 90 eggs. she also has use do 5 prize eggs and gives out cash prizes for those eggs. but we learned that they got smart and look for the numbered eggs, so we will number about 50 eggs and then we will draw numbers and who ever has the numbered egg that is drawn wins one of the prizes.

We have an Easter egg hunt for my grandchildren. I don't know if they are available in your country, but we use Cadbury's cream eggs for the hunt. These are small fondant eggs covered with chocolate. They are foil wrapped so they don't pick up any dirt when we hide them. We usually hide about three dozen of them but I can never tell if they have all been recovered. I have often come across a couple of them when I am doing my cleaning a couple of weeks later.

A bunch of us are getting together and we are hiding both plastic and real eggs. When my daughter was young she always had one special egg and it came from buying a pair of L'eggs pantyhose and they came in a plastic egg and we hid that egg with a $5.00 bill it, oops forgot to say we took the pantyhose out of the plastic egg first. LOL
