First time the Easter bunny is coming to our house. Do we leave the egg inside or outside?

Thanks

Our bunny left them where the shoes of the child were left .... they soon cottoned on to run around the house! However I am so sorry I did it once as I had my 9 yr old ask me how come he does not come and if he is real and if santa is real too??
Go there but be prepared for others not understanding the concept!!

Think this year easter bunny will leave them at the end of their beds, dont trust the irish weather !!!

One year they were very young i left them at the front door and rang the door bell, but i wouldnt get away with that now !!!

We do a trail of some small eggs with clues around the house with the final clue leading to the bigger egg.

Broke the news to DS during the week that there isn't an Easter Bunny and he is fine with it - just intrigued that it was me making up the clues every year and hiding the eggs. All he wants to know now is what type of egg he is getting! :biggrin:

We would only have small token eggs here, along with a few cuddly bunnies instead.
DH would have an egg hunt, each child gets a clue and follows to where it is, gets a small egg/toy and another clue and so on.
He spends Saturday night organising this, each child having different clues, so 4 bloody hunts going on :crazy:
He hides them in places like the bath, in shoes, behind curtains, in the playroom etc.
We never discussed the easter bunny, still don't, but since the older two started school, it became the norm for him to leave the eggs.

we've never done the easter bunny for some reason. We do an egg hunt with mini eggs, we just give them the bigger eggs :biggrin:
