Easter Party Games and Ideas

Jelly Bean Jar
Supplies:

• Large glass jar filled with jelly beans
• Small pieces of paper
• Easter basket
• Pencil

How To Play: Have children write their name on a small piece of paper and their guess as to how many jelly beans are in the jar. The child who guesses the right number or comes closest takes the jar of candy home to share with their family.

Pin the tail on the bunny
Supplies:

• A cut out bunny 
• blindfold
• Cotton balls (for tail)
• tape

How To Play: Everyone take a cotton ball.  Each child takes turn, while blindfolded, putting their cotton ball tail on the cut out of the bunny.  The child who is the closest to the actual spot wins a prize.  Other suggestions for prizes: child furthest from the spot, child with the tail in the silliest place.

Easter Cupcake Walk
Supplies:

• Cupcake for each child
• Numbers taped to the floor
• Easter basket to hold number call cards
• Music

How To Play: When the music starts the children begin to walk around the room stepping on each of the numbers as they go. When the music stops the children should step on the number closest to them. A number is pulled from the Easter basket and the child standing on that number gets to choose a cupcake and return to their desk. That number is then removed from the floor and the bag. Continue until every child has a cupcake.

Easter Egg Roll
Supplies:

• 1 hard-boiled Easter egg for each team (maybe a few extras)
• 1 spoon for each team

How To Play: Divide children into teams. The goal is for the first person to roll the egg with the spoon to the end of the course and back. The person hands the spoon to the next person in line and the relay continues until a team finishes.
