If you’re having an Easter get together with kids, this definitely game will be a hit! It’s a little twist on the classic Pin the Tail on the Donkey game.

The poster is sized as 16″x20″. I always print posters at Costco because they’re inexpensive and print true to color. The bunny ears can be printed at home on 8.5″x11″ cardstock.

Easter Don’t Eat Pete Game

Easter Don't Eat Pete Printable Game | Printables For Kids

Don’t Eat Pete is another classic holiday game we play all the time.

If you’ve never played, the idea is simple. You’ll need some sort of edible markers (M&M’s, marshmallows, etc) to cover every spot on the board.

The object of the game is for the person who is “it” to avoid eating Pete so he can eat as much candy as possible. The person chosen to be “it” will leave the room.

While he is gone, all the other players determine which space will be Pete. Then, the “it” person returns, and starts, one at a time, eating the candy off of the spots. When he goes to eat the candy from Pete’s spot, all the other players yell, “Don’t Eat Pete” and that person’s turn ends.

Play as many times as you want. If your kids are anything like mine, they’ll never want to stop playing!

Bunny Headband

They’re available in blue or pink and are super easy to put together. Simply print on thick, white cardstock and cut along the outlines.

Use glue dots, staples, or tape to create a headband loop big enough for your child’s head, then secure the bunny ears to the inside, and back of the headband.
