Easter eggs are a classic, but they can be pricey and a little unpredictable.
If you’re looking to switch things up this year without breaking the bank, we’ve got you covered! Here are 5 creative and cheap alternatives to traditional Easter eggs that will still bring the fun and excitement to your holiday.
Plastic Easter Egg Fillers (Non-Egg Style)
Instead of traditional eggs, use small plastic containers, like mini jars or cups. Fill them with treats, candy, or little toys, and hide them around for an exciting twist.
Colored Rocks or Stones
Head outside for a free and eco-friendly option! Paint or decorate small rocks with bright colors and patterns. They make for a fun treasure hunt, and you can reuse them year after year.
Origami Paper Eggs
If you’re feeling crafty, fold colorful sheets of paper into little egg shapes. It’s an easy, cheap project that lets you customize your Easter hunt with fun designs.
Balloons Filled with Treats
Blow up small balloons and tie them off with treats inside. Hide these inflated “eggs” for a unique twist on the classic hunt. They’re playful, colorful, and super affordable.
DIY Fabric Pouches
Sew or tie small fabric pouches (using scrap fabric or old clothes). Fill them with candy, confetti, or small toys. They’re reusable, and you can make them in any color or pattern you want!
