Here's Where to Find Easter Fun in Connecticut!

There are Easter Eggs hunts all over Connecticut, in 2011!  They are great fun for families with children!  Most allow children from babies through elementary school to participant in the actual hunt, but almost all also have many other activities, music, food and entertainment for adults and older children.  The egg hunts are usually right around Easter (obviously), often late March or early April - just click on the link to the event's website to find this year's date! There are also Easter breakfasts and brunches and Easter parades to watch! And if you would like to make your own natural organic Easter Egg dye, here's how to do it!

 

Always confirm dates and times via the contact information provided - they often change or cancel and do not tell me! 

Note: On the Easter Egg Hunt sponsor's website, usually, you will want to click on their calendar to see the details!
