Your Go-To Egg Hiding Places (1 Viewer)

With Easter Sunday coming up, looking to upgrade my egg hiding skills.

Where are some of your best spots for hiding some eggs?

 
Whats your audience?  I have a two year old, so nothing above 3-4 ft off the ground.

Tip from my childhood - if you're hiding real eggs, keep track via a map or list somehow.  Nothing like searching for a well-hidden rotten stinky egg in the bushes two weeks later 

 
My 12 year old son stills laughs about when the Easter Bunny left an egg floating in a bowl in the toilet a few years ago.

 
if you're in the house, in the toilet tank is always a great place for the 'golden egg'....put in Ziploc first.

We switched from real to candy/money filled a few years ago.  I just couldn't remember all the awesome hiding places.

 
If outdoors:

On the grill grates with a grill cover on gets the golden egg. My go to  

Line up a bunch of pots upside down, eggs go in the middle few  

under grandpas arm or something similar is good for a laugh. 

Underneath deck

flower pot with a bunch of flowers, tone on tone gets them every time. 

In ornamental grasses

inside a collapsed outdoor patio umbrella

hanging just out of reach from a backetball hoop or tree. In car wheel wells/grills/just inside tires

mailbox -even better if it’s a good distance from the hunt area. 

Bird feeder

inside cooler-if you have a beer cooler etc and the kids go “looking” elsewhere it’s an easy spot. Bonus if you sink it in ice. 

 
I hid 28 eggs for my kids last night.  This was indoors, limited to only a few rooms.  They found 26.  I have no idea where I put the other two.

At the in-laws' today I was in charge of egg hiding, because "I'm so good at it".  I was supposedly given 48 eggs, but only 45 were recovered.  I seriously have no idea where the other 3 are.

I'm really, really good.

chocolate for this summer.

 
my 12 year old didn't wanna do the yard egg hunt this year because "that's for little kids" - ok. fair enough.  

so i hid roughly a dozen up in the casa - made sure i spread properly enough on all three floors (but my basement office is/was off limits). 

she did not find the one i popped into the egg carton in he fridge - never bothered to look - told her one more way missing, but she gave a shrug, and got the #### on with life. 

oh, there's a fitty spot in that fridge one - cold, hard US of A currency - rest were filled with doo-dads and lil' kitschy #### - she got a hoot outta what she did find, but lost interest after searching for the last one for close to half an hour. 

my gf kinda foisted this scenario on us, so i can see why the kid was ambivalent, at best.   

tl;dr - these things are a tough sell once lil' missy becomes more "independent" and grown up  :shrug:
