Easter Egg Hunt

Springtime is a busy time in a garden. The bugs, birds and butterflies at The Stevens-Coolidge Place are ready to get to work planting seeds and spreading pollen, but first they need your help! In this program, participating children are on a hunt to find these garden workers resting inside their eggs throughout the property. Bring your own egg carton (sorry no bags allowed) to collect 12 eggs, then enjoy a craft time, story and seed planting to learn about how our garden grows and celebrate all things spring!

On Saturday, April 20th the Rockport Division of the Cape Ann Chamber of Commerce will hold the 29th annual Rockport Community Easter Egg Hunt at 2pm.  The event is for the children of Rockport – preschoolers through grade one and will take place on the field adjacent to the Rockport Elementary School playground, 24 Jerden’s Lane.  The Easter Bunny is also expected to make an appearance.  Children should bring a basket and arrive early. 

Trees and branches decorated with eggs, feathers, and ornaments, called Easter Trees, are part of both German and Swedish traditions and make a whimsical, festive decoration for your spring table. Create your own interpretation of the Easter Tree with natural branches and a variety of hand-crafted ornaments. Bring the whole family along - there will be plenty of opportunities for small hands to get involved in creating your Easter Tree tradition!
