Easter is all about Easter eggs and new beginnings. Celebrate this wonderful Spring time with fun Easter games for kids. Here are a few old time favorites that are sure to keep the kids busy and having fun.

Hen and Chickens

  • A leader is chosen for the "hen" and the remainder of the children are "chickens," except one who is supposed to be a chicken hawk.
  • They stand in a row behind one another and grasp the skirts or coat-tails of the child ahead and then they march along with the "hen" at the head of the line.
  • The "hawk" stands from six to sixteen feet away (the distance depends on the size of the players and the space to play in, the larger each are the greater the distance may be) watching the parade for a short time, then begins to flop his wings (moves arms in imitation of flying) and calls out, "How many chicks have you?"
  • The "hen" replies, "four and twenty, shoo! shoo!" The "hawk" shouts, "That's too many. I'll take a few," and then runs after the children trying to touch or "tag" them.
  • The "hen," of course, tries to protect them by getting them under her wing--when the "chicks" stoop they are supposed to be under their mother's wing and cannot be caught.
  • The children must not let go of each other's skirts or coat-tails (except when caught, then the captured one steps out of the line and the line is closed up.)
  • The hen and chickens may run around as much as they like, only they must keep together by holding on to each other's clothes.
  • This fun Easter games for kids continues until the hawk has caught the hen and chickens--then a different player is chosen for the hawk and the hen.

An Egg Hunt

  • Hide colored Easter eggs or small candy eggs in various places, in corners, behind curtains, bric a brac, etc., etc.
  • Provide each child with a small basket or paper bag and at a signal they start to hunt for the hidden eggs.
  • Allow a certain length of time for the hunting and reward the one who finds the most eggs with a large candy egg.

Easter Bunny Word Scramble

  • Give each person a pencil and paper with the words "Easter Bunny" written at the top.
  • They must then write down as many words as they can think of that can be made using the letters contained in the words "Easter bunny".
  • The person who can think of the most words wins a prize; you can also have prizes for the most unusual words, the least words, the most original words, etc.
