Okay, as you saw in the Easter egg hunt post, that’s been wildly popular here. Ever since then they’ve been hiding their eggs again, and finding them. It cracks me up to see them hide the eggs, and then wander back there 2 minutes later and act totally surprised the eggs are there. I thought to capitalize on their interest.
So, I wrote out a bunch of sentences they could read and some numbers for them to count up to and put them in the eggs. They happily hid and found the eggs for another 30 minutes and reading and counting as we hid them upstairs, downstairs, and outside.

Learning Adventures at the SPEED of FUN!
Genius idea!
That looks like so much fun!
That looks like a ton of fun!
We use to have fun with the older kids in about the same manner, but I never thought of the little notes. I will have to remember this for Selena.
I like that you “capitalized” on their interest…it's so great to “trick” kiddos into learning…
Brilliant! How does it feel to be a mommy genius?
Great idea. Love it!
I am planning to pull our eggs out again once the weather gets better and also have some fun with them outside. Who said that egg hunts can only happen once a year?
