How to Win an Easter Egg Hunt on Easter 2013



Easter Egg Hunts sound very simple but there are some complex strategies that can help you win. Younger, inexperienced children simply run around and look wherever their little legs take them. They don’t really have a game plan and that is why they typically pass over a good amount of the eggs. They will see one bright pink egg thirty yards away and pass by ten other eggs in order to get that one egg. This strategy might work when you are younger, but once you turn double digits you need to step your game up or else you will be crushed by the competition.

There are two main techniques that can be utilized to ensure an Easter Egg Hunt Victory during Easter 2013. Both strategies involve constant scanning of the territory but the two techniques use vastly different scanning techniques. Option one is scanning the entire playing field on one level as you circle the entire premises. If the egg hunt is hosted in a square yard, you should walk the entire edge of the yard while looking down at the ground by your feet. After the first loop, look a little higher up. And then the final lap you should look higher than the second lap. That ensures that you will cover the entire playing field top to bottom. Second option is to scan the playing field section by section. This technique calls for you to break down the egg hunt area into sections and scan an entire section top to bottom before moving onto the next section. This strategy could pay off if lots of the eggs are placed in one of your early sections but could really hurt you if the eggs are placed in sections you don’t check until the end of the hunt.

One tip every professional Easter Egg Hunter knows that you should know as well is to never be focused on only one egg. If you see an egg ten feet away and are going to get it, be sure to constantly scan the area between you and the egg for any other eggs. This one tip separates the amateurs from the pros. If this is the first time you are hearing about this tip, then be excited because it is going to step your egg hunting game up big time during Easter 2013. And for that you are welcome!

Unlike other popular holidays such as Christmas or New Years, Easter is a moveable holiday meaning its date is changes every year. In 2013, Easter falls on March 31st.
