LYFE Kitchen Evanston

bring your family and friends together to LYFE Kitchen Evanston (1603 Orrington Ave) for a day filled with good for you food, an inviting atmosphere, and of course, the kid-friendly Easter bunny. On Sunday, March 29 and Saturday, April 4 at 11 a.m., celebrate Easter with your kids and join the Evanston community for an exciting Easter egg hunt on the plaza, just steps away from the restaurant. After the kids find all the hidden eggs (we hope!), head inside LYFE Kitchen for a meet and greet and photo opp with the Easter Bunny (say cheese!). If your kids are still looking for some more excitement, set them up at the arts and crafts table to use their imagination and design a cute picture frame!

Winnetka Park District

The 42nd annual egg hunt will meet at West Elm Park for the fun and excitement of hunting for goody-filled eggs at Winnetka’s 42nd annual egg hunt on April 4 at 10 a.m. After the eggs are all cracked, stick around and get your picture taken with the hare himself, EB the Bunny.

All parents and children (suggested age: 8 years and under) will have the opportunity to get their picture taken, enjoy the DJ entertainment, bounce around on inflatables, warm up with some coffee or hot chocolate, make your own trail mix and even pet real bunnies!
