Have a 3 year old granddaughter visiting over Easter & want an alternative to a chocolate egg hunt.
Would be great if its not food or sweets related. as she can't have chocolate.
Novelty egg decorations from a pound shop different colours could score points to be traded for toys of different value. Hollow tin or cardboard eggs could be filled with treats that are ok or little trinkets and toys.
I don't know if they're available here, Lidl or Aldi maybe, but in Germany we used to buy coloured gels and they could be used to paint warm eggs, they melted in the heat.
We do an egg-rolling competition after church on Easter Sunday. Before that the (hard-boiled) eggs are decorated and awarded prizes. We also hide small chocolate eggs around the church, but after reading your post I think that I'll suggest that there are a couple of real eggs included. Not thought of that, thanks.
Somehow, 5 hens and a cockerel have made their homes in the churchyard this winter, so a general scour by children to find clutches may also happen.

Boiled eggs to keep with the Easter theme? Or magic boiled eggs if you use this method which is sure to surprise and delight her as well as given her a hearty nutritious treats at the end of a hunt.
