\"Rabbit\"<\/a>Easter is coming up this weekend, so it\u2019s a perfect time to organize a unique Easter Egg Scavenger Hunt for someone special.\u00a0 Using a text message to send out the scavenger hunt clues to any cell phone makes for an egg-citing interactive Easter egg hunt that you can set up ahead of time.<\/p>\n

With this interactive text message tool, you can even set up several different scavenger hunts that will start at the time you decide, so if you have two or three other children they can each follow the same or different clues and have a great time doing their individual hunts.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It\u2019s really simple to set up your scavenger hunt with Textclues with a little preparation ahead of time.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

First, pick up some colourful plastic Easter Eggs to hide some treats in (you can even hide small prizes at each location so that your hunter can full up their Easter baskets with goodies along the way) and then at the last location of the hunt you can hide your BIG EASTER SURPRISE (e.g. a big chocolate egg, a cuddly stuffed animal or a basket full of goodies).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Next, think up some riddles and clues to hide at each location to lead them on to the next clue.\u00a0 You should be able to come up with 10 \u2013 20 clues without too much trouble, but here is an example to get you going \u2013<\/p>\n
