For the final session of the unit join Justin Fletcher on an Easter egg hunt.
3. We're going on an Easter egg hunt
For the final part of Egg stravaganza! we go on an Easter egg hunt in the park: we pass a ball across a football-pitch; balance and spin on the playground equipment; clamber over climbing-frames and squelch through mud in a search for four chocolate Easter eggs. On finding the fourth egg, groups of four form a line to sit down, one at a time.
