5 Fun Easter Games to Play With Your Family (and Tips to Clean Up After!)

Easter is one of the most joyful times of the year—filled with chocolate, crafts, colorful eggs, and most importantly, connection. It’s a time when families come together to share traditions, laughter, and sweet moments that create lasting memories.

Whether you’re hosting brunch with family or planning a fun day in the backyard with the kids, creating interactive, playful experiences is a great way to make the most of the holiday.

Here are 5 Easter play ideas the whole family can enjoy—plus simple cleaning tips to keep your home just as cheerful after the celebration.

A timeless classic and the ultimate Easter tradition. Hide plastic or chocolate-filled eggs around the house or garden, and let the kids search for them with baskets in hand.

Ideal age: 2+

Materials: Plastic eggs, chocolates or toys inside, baskets or small bags

Duration: 15–30 minutes depending on the size of the hunt

Pro Tip: Add a “golden egg” with a surprise inside to make it even more exciting!

✅ Clean-up tip: Place a bin or basket near the door for wrappers and found toys to keep things from spreading through the house.

Great for creativity and quiet time! Set up a table with hard-boiled eggs, brushes, water-based paints, stickers, and markers. If possible, organize this activity outdoors — fresh air and less mess indoors.

Ideal age: 3+ (with supervision for smaller kids)

Materials: Hard-boiled eggs, non-toxic paint, markers, stickers, cups with water

Duration: 20–40 minutes

✅ Clean-up tip: Cover the table with newspaper or a reusable plastic tablecloth. Have paper towels and wet wipes nearby.

A favorite for outdoor fun and movement! Kids (and even adults!) jump their way to the finish line in pillowcases or cloth sacks. Perfect for family gatherings and sunny afternoons.

Ideal age: 5+

Materials: Pillowcases or canvas sacks, cones or markers for the track

Duration: 10–20 minutes per round

✅ Clean-up tip: Shake off grass and dirt outside before tossing the sacks into the laundry basket.

A sweet spin on the classic "Pin the Tail on the Donkey" game. Blindfolded players try to stick a fluffy cotton tail on a poster bunny — laughter guaranteed!

Ideal age: 4+

Materials: Bunny poster (DIY or printed), cotton balls or felt tails, blindfold, painter’s tape

Duration: 10–15 minutes

✅ Clean-up tip: Use painter’s tape instead of glue to avoid sticky residue on walls or furniture.

Fun, easy, and competitive! Set up baskets or small buckets and have players toss candy into them from a distance. The person who lands the most wins a treat!

Ideal age: 4+

Materials: Wrapped candies, plastic buckets or baskets

Duration: 10–20 minutes

✅ Clean-up tip: Sweep or vacuum candy pieces quickly to avoid sticky spots or attracting ants.

Easter is a great excuse to make memories with the people we love. But after all the fun—the candy runners, glitter paint, grass socks, and bunny paws—your home could use a little TLC.
