As you can see there are lots of free Easter events in South Florida. Make sure to bring your cameras, and your baskets. If you do not have a basket, you can easily make one out of a milk jug, a shoe box, or simply hand your child a plastic bag, and they will have a great time filling it. If you have more than one child, I can highly recommend bringing along a second adult, as the kids are often put into age groups, and the times can coincide with each other.

  2. I am glad you stopped by Jen, and I hope you found a great egg hunt in your area. I just got home from an Easter event, and the kids had a blast.
