16 Easter Egg Hunts in the Rockford Area
Hey mom or dad, right after you're done reading through this list of Easter egg hunts I want you to immediately ask your kid to clean their room; then I want you to remember how long it takes them to actually do it.
You see, when you tell a kid to pick up a bunch of random things off the floor in their room, they're all like "nah fam;" but when you tell them to go pick up a park littered with Easter eggs, they're off like a prize winning stallion at the Kentucky derby. Maybe you just need to start stashing candy and cash inside the drawers where their clothes are supposed to be.
Or just let them be kids because their rooms are supposed to be messy and it's way more fun to hop, skip and jump like Easter bunnies in a public park filled with colorful and sometimes edible Easter eggs.
Here's where you can take your kids to find all of them.
