Easter Egg Hunt... in November

One night in November I had the four oldest bundle up in warm clothes and gave them each a flashlight and a bag and sent them to meet their dad in the backyard. It was too cold for baby and me.

Jeremy sent the kids around the yard with the flashlights, hunting for plastic eggs with reflective tape on them. They had fun.

When they came inside, they got to open their eggs to find candy inside them. 

We were originally planning on doing this in lieu of trick-or-treating on Halloween but it didn't happen. They still got candy from the parade and we told them in advance that we weren't going to do trick-or-treating that night.

This was a fun activity for them to do out of the blue on a cold night in November.
