Easter Egg Hunt
Every year the girls' school holds an easter egg hunt. The hunt is not what we normally have in the U.S. In the U.S. an easter egg hunt has eggs hidden in a yard or big field. Here we head out to the Suchdol woods. We trek through the woods looking for 8 stations where the teachers can be found. The teachers ask the kids a question and, given the correct answer, they give the children chocolate. It is a lot of fun running about in the woods. The girls were really excited when we found their teachers (pictured here). A few of the teachers even dress up in easter bunny outfits and we have to look for them as well. Last year we had fun and only found about half of the teachers. This year we found all the stations but still didn't find two of the "rabbits". We are making progress! The weather was a little chilly today but we were happy to have the sun shining on us at the end for our picnic. I, as usual, was not as prepared as a some of the parents but we still enjoyed our picnic. The kids questioned me as to why I didn't bring a blanket to sit on and why I didn't have hot tea to drink but they were content to sit on the ground, eat sandwiches and drink water. Next year I will come prepared with appropriate picnicing supplies!
