WEST HAVEN, CT — (Pictured): Peter Cottontail recently hopped his way across the city and delivered egg candy bags to the first 600 children ages 2 to 10 who registered online as part of the Department of Parks and Recreation’s new Easter egg scramble.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic and social distancing restrictions, the Easter Bunny and his friends distributed the bags to residents at the curb of their house or apartment. Some youngsters even found a purple ribbon in an egg, which they returned to Park-Rec in exchange for a prize.
